      Verdict

      Monaajez has gone rather quiet the last twice after her smooth Bath success and it may be best to look elsewhere. Diamond Cottage enjoys life here and both recent successes came at this venue over six and seven furlongs respectively. She's 7lb higher for the two wins but is more than capable of going close again in her current mood. ICONIC KNIGHT finished behind the Saunders mare here in June but is much better off at the weights, ran really well at the track last time and has gone well for his 3lb claiming apprentice on the two occasions they've teamed up. Lilandra only has a career record of 1-26 but has delivered a consistent account throughout the season and is respected once again off a fair mark.
