        Verdict

        Sciarra never figured in soft ground over 7f at Chepstow last time but had gone close over today’s trip at Thirsk earlier. She can get involved but HEPWORTH MARBLE was behind a subsequent winner when only fifth at Lingfield and Gary Moore’s filly makes more appeal on her handicap bow. Dream Dana is another expected to improve now handicapping but Teversham has struggled since landing a double on the all-weather early this year. Miss Phillyjinks is proving inconsistent while Desert River was placed off a similar mark over track and trip last year and has a recent reappearance under his belt.
