This is a competitive fillies¿ handicap to close the card and the leading lights look to be Loch Verdi, Musical Romance and Catherines Caf¿ith the vote given to Loch Verdi. The selection is a daughter of the flying filly Lochsong and she ran well last time when finishing third behind Nusoor at Thirsk. That was her seasonal reappearance and she is entitled to come on for the run and she looks to have a leading chance. Musical Romance was disappointing at Kempton last time over 5f but she has shown some fair form on the turf and she may be seen in a better light today. Catherines Caf¿as a fair third behind Patavium Prince at Salisbury last time but she looks to be in the grip of the handicapper and she may be best watched at present. Supreme Kiss would have claims on the pick of her turf form and is another to consider, but for the winner we will return to Loch Verdi.
