Verdict

Hermosa Vaquera won over hurdles last month but that was on fast ground. General Brook is usually thereabouts without being quite good enough but Marco Ghiani can probably get a tune out of Mistress Nellie and Royal Dancer has been getting closer to a first victory. AFFAIR has form on the ground and on turning tracks. Now 3lb lower than when successful on Polytrack less than a year ago, she could be the answer to an ordinary contest if a visor has the desired effect.
