    Verdict

    Chepstow fourth Castagna Girl is improving with experience but SHILLA will surely make it third-time lucky here in receipt of 4lb as she was only beaten a short-head over 5f at Leicester last time having filled the runner's-up spot behind the useful Autumn Sunrise over 6f at Windsor on debut. Gower Princess is preferred to the moderate Benoordenhout of the others.
