      Verdict

      GUMRA came good at Newcastle dropped into this lowly grade. She’s only 2lb higher for this and Karl Burke’s filly should confirm running with Aqaareb and go close again. Phoenix Star went close at Newcastle when dropped back down to 6f but Lippy Lady is preferred returning to today’s trip after struggling over a mile on fast ground at Bath. Dreamboat Annie won at Lingfield in August but hasn’t figured since and remains 6lb higher while Southwell winner Catapult has switched yards since last in action.
