Verdict

A switch to front-running tactics worked for LALANIA at Yarmouth last time and she made all for a convincing three-length success. She can go in again now handicapping for the first time. A winner at Salisbury, Richenza failed to cope with a hike in the weights at Goodwood while though Rock On Baileys drops down in class he remains 12lb higher than when winning at Wolverhampton in March. Sugar Coating makes her handicap debut and is preferred to the other Cheveley Park-owned filly Forever In Love while Nawassi attempts 6f for the first time having disappointed over a mile at Wolverhampton.
