Verdict

FANTASTIC LADY looked all set to show much-improved form prior to falling at the final flight in a mares' novice at Warwick last month, a length up on her closest pursuer and seemingly idling when departing. She earns the vote to make amends now, with Aggy With It and Saturn 'N Silk a couple of others fancied to get involved.

  1. FANTASTIC LADY (FR)
  2. AGGY WITH IT (IRE)
  3. SATURN 'N SILK
