Verdict

A host of horses stake solid claims in an open-looking handicap, but preference is for CELESTIAL FORCE, who wasn't disgraced behind a very smart-looking prospect at Ascot and is likely to relish a lesser stamina-sapping trip and track. Appointed has been running with great credit recently and must be considered a contender given the handicapper is still winning to give her a chance, while Medalla De Oro could be dangerous if given a soft lead but may be vulnerable at a track which doesn't play to her strengths.
  1. Celestial Force
  2. Appointed
  3. Medalla De Oro
