Verdict

Plenty of in-form sorts in opposition with SAINT BIBIANA given the narrow vote to come out on top. Having completed a quick-fire hat-trick over C&D in June, she again ran well when runner-up at Newton Abbot 5 weeks ago and a 3 lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold showing. Secret Trix and City Derby are others to consider, along with last year's winner Our Sam, who will appreciate the return to this longer trip.

  1. SAINT BIBIANA (IRE)
