        Verdict

        SOPHIE'S HERO has the form and the experience behind her and should be able to break her maiden tag at the fourth attempt at the expense of Ajaafa and Philharmonic Hall. The selection has finished second twice in three starts to date and was only narrowly beaten to the post at Hamilton last week. She has handled the undulations of this track in the past and with luck in running she is difficult to oppose. Ajaafa caught the eye on his debut at this venue last month finishing third in the process. He is sure to benefit for the outing and will be one to note in the betting market. Philharmonic Hall comes form the Richard Fahey stable which has been hot in form throughout the season. His jockey Paul Hanagan currently heads the jockeys table and is sure to have his followers. Sophie's Hero has more ticks in her boxes compared to the majority of her rivals and looks the percentage call.
