Verdict

EPERNAY got off the mark over a mile here last week on her reappearance. She still has something to prove over this longer trip but has plenty of scope for further improvement on only her sixth start. Strike A Deal also has to prove he stays today's distance though his best form over a mile last season gives him a chance, while Hits Only Jude is another to consider dropped in class. Prince Rhyddarch was sent off favourite at Ayr last week and can make the frame once again.
