Verdict

WOOLHAMPTON has yet to finish out of the top 3 in a trio of visits to this course, so from 1 lb below her last winning mark she could be ready to get her head back in front with the blinkers reapplied. She can see off the challenge of Glamorous Breeze, who isn't taken lightly with her recent run behind her, while Burning Cash is also one to note at this level.
