      Verdict

      Roman Emperor has been gelded since placing at Newbury but that was back in June and MRS MORRELL is preferred. The latter showed enough to suggest she can win at this level when runner-up at Wolverhampton and the Gosdens’ yard is firing-in the winners. Post Rider finished second here on her debut and drops down in trip while Blue Virtue is related to a winner and her yard won a division of this last year.
