Verdict

STRICTLY DREAMING left the impression that a stiffer test would be in her favour when third in a 1¼m Newmarket handicap a fortnight ago and she can back that theory up by opening her account here off a 1 lb lower mark. There are several others to consider, including Detective, who is now below his last winning mark and has been knocking on the door of late. Bringbackmemories and the in-form Spanish Hustle are also shortlisted.

  1. STRICTLY DREAMING
  2. DETECTIVE
  3. BRINGBACKMEMORIES (FR)
