Forecasts

Top And Drop (5/2), Misty Mai (3/1), Miss Yeats (7/2), Silent Steps (4/1), Troubled Soul (5/1), The Wicket Chicken (6/1), Dawnieriver (8/1), Still Believing (9/1), Pulling Power (10/1), Sheneededtherun (12/1), Bennys Girl (16/1), Shanann Star (20/1)

Verdict

MISS YEATS is stepping up in distance here but she is taken to follow-up her Lingfield victory last time out. That effort came on her return from a break and she can take this at the chief expense of The Wicket Chicken who ran well when runner-up at Chepstow in October and can reverse that form with top weight Still Believing who finished in front of her that day.
  1. Miss Yeats
  2. The Wicket Chicken
  3. Still Believing
