Verdict

Course Specialist ORIENTAL GIRL has won well on her last two starts so under 6lb extra can land a hat-trick. The mare's performance when beating Shianda two starts back looks strong form to add into the pot and the third win should be forthcoming. Madame Excelerate is given every chance on her close second at Wolverhampton three runs back but the concern is she hasn't been as good since. Broughtons Swinger isn't weighted out of a challenge under 4lb extra for scoring last time but Oriental Girl should take some stopping.
