      Verdict

      Silk Train performs well on Polytrack but her Turf form leaves plenty to be desired while Grace And Favour looks high enough in the weights on what she's achieved to date. Scarlet Sash is by Sir Percy and a half-sister to a 1m2f winner so she was always likely to struggle for pace over a mile and this trip should be much more like it. Pandorica has won twice over the track and trip and her last two starts over been over timber here where she's been placed so she has to be a threat but the vote goes to MAMBO RHYTHM. Mark Johnston's filly won a better class handicap over the course and distance in September and is just 1lb higher after running moderately over longer trips.
