Verdict

ANNIE DAY failed to build on her most promising chase debut when a distant second at Chepstow last month, but it's still early days for this 6-y-o and this intermediate trip could be just the ticket. She gets the nod ahead of recent Ffos Las scorer Kiera Royale, who looks a big threat despite going up 8 lb. The consistent Pottlereaghexpress should also make her presence felt.
