In depth

Verdict

La Grace could be worth persevering with here after a decent effort at Warwick last week, while Shinko Femme and Lady Blade look to be the best of the rest. La Grace finished fourth last time having previously run well behind Tolzey, and looks to have a great opportunity here. The selection hung entering the straight in last week's race but still wasn't far behind the winner, and a reproduction of that effort should be good enough. Shinko Femme could be the main danger after finishing a close fourth behind the well regarded Treasure House at this track last week. That was a good performance and a similar effort could see her go close on a track that clearly suits. Lady Blade could also be worthy of consideration after an encouraging debut at Kempton last month, but we are happy to side with La Grace, who attracted market support at Warwick and a natural progression from that effort will see our selection take all the beating.
