Verdict

Last-time-out winners CHUMMIE and Comfort Line both make plenty of appeal. Marginal preference is for the fomer, who hasn't stood much racing in recent seasons but she looked on good terms with herself when making all over C&D last month and she's drawn to attack in stall one. Kudbegood wasn't at his best last time but has claims judged on his solid second here in January while Indiana Grey and Nibras Rainbow are others to consider in a competitive handicap.
