Verdict

Four Kingdoms latest run gives him one of the more progressive profiles in this and would make the most attractively weighted of these. The form needs to be treated with caution given the steady pace for that seller . Lady Volante is a longstanding maiden but she looks ready to do better over this trip and she ran better than she was entitled to at the weights last time. The yard's horses are going well and she can make the frame at least. ANNOUSHKA has gone well in similar grade this year and her positive style of running will ask questions of her rivals. There are few in this race with a turn of foot and she could prove difficult to pass.
  1. Annoushka
  2. Lady Volante
  3. Four Kingdoms
