Verdict

Days Like This is entitled to go handicapping but Rae Guest keeps her at this level and she's preferred to My Opinion, who has has a first start on Turf having offered little so far on artificial surfaces. Kodima Imperial makes even less appeal so this can go to the newcomer CHANCERY, a half-brother to three winners sporting the colours of The Queen.
