Verdict

HARMONISE returns to soft ground for the first time since winning over this trip at Newmarket back in May. The selection's handicap mark is falling and she is now rated just 1lb higher than for that success and can get the better of Waves who is another with a preference for soft surfaces having won on soft ground earlier in the season. Handicap debutant Gold Dust has put in some fair efforts in maiden company and she can claim third switching to soft ground for the first time.
