Verdict

Bitter Virtue represents a yard that are worth following when as hot as they are now and she needs to be watched closely for a market move. The proven fitness of VERSIFIER gets her the vote as she is dropping in trip and her handicap mark is beginning to look more attractive having been raised following a career best at Huntingdon in March. Jazz Thyme is a strong travelling type who goes well fresh but she is inclined to give little in a finish. Nevertheless she looks good enough to make the frame.
