Verdict

Both Dark Kris and Laurentia won over track and trip in September though neither have benefitted from today’s draw so a chance is taken on TARA. Soft ground was against the latter at Windsor last time but she had been threatening to open her account on the Polytrack before that and gets another chance in this. Ower Starlight is upped in trip after placed efforts over 7f while Jeanette May drops back down in distance.
