Verdict

Titan Goddess was winning for the first time in 16 attempts when scoring at Yarmouth and makes less appeal raised 7lb. FOR SHIA AND LULA has won six times on the all-weather and has tumbled down the weights since his latest success. A recent second over track and trip suggests he can return to winning ways in this. Major Muscari was beaten only a length over 7f on his penultimate start while Belle Mare Plage has slid 10lb down the handicap in a relatively short period and can figure along with the unexposed Onesie.
