Verdict

Not difficult to draw a thick line through the majority of these runners, with only the trio at the top end of the weights considered. Sleep In First posted a fair effort back over fences recently despite struggling early doors and could fare better if able to lie up with the early pace. However, competition for the lead will ensure a good gallop throughout with the likeable mare MISS CONWAY having her ideal conditions for the first time in ages. With the sun continuing to shine, she's taken to lead her rivals a merry dance from the front end and return to form from a slipping mark for her fifth C&D success.
  1. Miss Conway
  2. Sleep In First
  3. Indian Voyage
