A devilishly tough finale in which Harry Beau is turned out quickly under a penalty prior to being clobbered by the handicapper for Tuesday's emphatic Chepstow win. The pace will be a strong one with a number of these horses proven front-runners including Broughton's Knight and Precious Silk. Both Coverham and Dashing Poet probably still reside on winning marks, but might find easier opportunities than this race in the weeks ahead whilst East Coast Lady is seemingly on the way back to form. However, a speculative dart is aimed at TOY THEATRE. She is versatile in terms of tactics, but has enough speed to draft in behind the early leaders and pounce.
