Verdict

NURSE NIGHTINGALE was an impressive winner here last time out, will have no trouble seeing out this extra furlong and the form of her win has been franked by the runner-up since. She looks well in under a 6lb penalty and with that in mind, she's taken to get the better of Ocean Of Love. The Godolphin filly was impressive herself at Wolverhampton last time and it will be interesting to see if the fillies battle out from the front. Time To Blossom is another last time out winner who brings eye-catching form to the table and she could prove the main danger to the four-year-olds.
  1. Nurse Nightingale
