    Verdict

    Babouska beat Serenade The Stars at Wolverhampton earlier and the latter went on to score here beating La Vie En Rose, Av A Word and Forest Steps in the process. That line of form gives Mick Easterby’s filly every chance but BROUGHTONS STORY is just preferred. The latter drops down a grade after finishing a close-up fourth at Wolverhampton last month and Henry Spiller’s charge can open his account in this company.
