Verdict

Doubts can be raised about every runner in the field but DISTANT MIRAGE is open more improvement and has been found a decent opportunity to follow up her win at Kempton last month. Warning Fire is also unexposed and merits a betting check at least, whereas Swiss Pride seemed to be a reformed character on his first run after a gelding operation and is another to bear in mind.
  1. Distant Mirage
