Verdict

The return to the AW can see top weight SUMMER CHORUS register her fifth career success in this. The selection ran well on turf last time out and can defy a 2lb rise here to see of Peak Princess who registered her first AW win at the first attempt in blinkers last time out. Of the remainder Silvestre De Sousa is a notable jockey booking for Dark Side Dream and he can claim third having been running well under an apprentice rider of late.
