Verdict

With Soprano most unlikely to run having failed to justify favouritism at Sandown on Thursday, PRETTY CRYSTAL, who finished fifth in the Albany over C&D last month, is offered as the selection given she possesses plenty of scope. York novice winner Symbology is open to any amount of improvement so has to be feared, with Lunar Shine expected to relish this pretty stiff 6f.
