      Verdict

      ONLYFOALSANDHORSES may be able to step up on her debut form and get the better of Summer Jasmine and interesting newcomer Try The Chance. Summer Jasmine arguably sets the standard but her run at Chepstow came on good to soft and it remains to be seen whether she can match that level of form on this far quicker ground. Conditions should be of no concern for Onlyfoalsandhorses though and she showed promise at Lingfield when not beaten far and looks sure to do better over this marginally longer trip with that run behind her. Kingfisher Blue will find this less competitive but didn't show a great deal at Goodwood whilst Indian Shuffle and Ignore The Advice need to step up on the level of form that they've shown to date. Try The Chance didn't attract a great deal of interest on his first two visits to the sales but he did attract interest at the breeze-ups and he would be feared if he attracts support in the market but preference, at this stage, is for Onlyfoalsandhorses.
