        Verdict

        Not the strongest of Listed races with the weights headed by the disappointing Lady High Havens. Now with Jeremy Noseda, a change of scenery may just work the trick with her, although she does have plenty to prove now, while Lady Bear has hit form with a vengeance. She deserves a crack at this level, but she looks to have plenty on off her present mark. If Silent Crystal's running at Doncaster can be believed, she looks to be a fast improving filly and the Handicapper has acted accordingly raising her 11lbs for that effort. She had previously looked none too keen when beaten in a maiden at Newmarket, before struggling to get off the mark in a similar contest at Ayr. Irish raider Sonorous is another improving filly and is worthy of respect, but the vote goes to Sandy Lady, who bounced back to form last time when beating subsequent winner Oakly Rambo. She remains well treated off only a 4lb higher mark and is taken to gain some black type.
