Verdict

FAIRY CROSS had loads to spare when off the mark at Newmarket last time and the runner-up has boosted the form since, so she makes plenty of appeal up in grade. Tagline is a bit more exposed but does set the standard on form, so she's respected, while Dance In The Grass' claims can't be ignored following an impressive winning debut over C&D.
