        Verdict

        Fleurtille is a soft ground specialist who has been running well though she's now 11lb higher than when scoring at Newcastle in April. Jamesbo's Girl usually performs at a higher level but her best form has been on faster ground so she wouldn'r want any more rain. Abi Scarlet is very much a Southwell specialist with all of her seven victories having come on the Fibresand track but HEARTSONG (NAP) likes plenty of give and provided it doesn't quicken up she looks the one to be on. John Gallagher's mare won handicaps at Doncaster and Nottingham earlier this summer and she'll have needed her recent run at Bath. Layla's Hero has been in excellent form all summer and her latest run here should be ignored as she didn't stay the 7f trip so she's on the shortlist. Penny Garcia did a bit better at Newcastle last time and can go well from her lowly spot in the handicap.
