Verdict
Vardas Supreme went close to losing her maiden tag at Hexham 12 days ago and Samantha Drake takes off 7lb again here. But it could be worth taking a chance on the fitness of SACRE TOI, who has also shown signs of promise and usually in better company than this. Quinder Spring has won at Cartmel and Uttoxeter recently and is a danger, though he has to give 8lb to the selection. Bertie Milan also has claims but Soul Angel has failed to fire this year, though is back on a winning mark following a break.
