Verdict

Best advice is to stick with the runners who aren't exposed in this sphere. Namely ALYX VANCE and River Dawn. They are still both lightly raced and now step up to 7f on just their second start in this sphere after making encouraging handicap debuts last time out. The former is narrowly preferred as she receives a valuable 5lb from the latter, but they are a hard pair to split with both of them holding appealing profiles. Princess Florence and Tarrzan are also worth mentions after the former broke her maiden duck over C&D last week, while the latter has produced a string of consistent efforts in defeat of late.
  1. Alyx Vance
  2. River Dawn
  3. Princess Florence
