Verdict
Whitehotchillifili is a tough mare but it’s a while since she got her head in front. Lassue returned from a lengthy absence to get the better of FORTUNA LIGNA (NAP) at Chepstow in a race in which Midnightreflection whipped round at the start and unseated her rider. The runner-up is now 4lb better off, however, and she’ll also strip fitter today so can reverse the form. Go Chique has turned in a couple of shockers since winning at Market Rasen in August but Miss Milano wasn’t disgraced at Wetherby last month.
