Verdict

CHINESE DEMOCRACY did not look like she had stopped winning at Lingfield last time and is taken to defy a 6lb rise and complete a hat-trick at the main expense of Leelu, Interakt and Via Aurelia. The last-named sports a first-time visor tonight after disappointing at Kempton last time. A return to the form of her Yarmouth run that preceded it would give her frame claims at the least in this fillies' contest. Leelu came back really well when fresh last time and is unpenalised today for that handicap success, which clearly makes her one to fear despite the drop in trip. Mick Channon's Interakt won over this distance at Brighton in May and should be competitive, though she has gone up in the weights since then without further success and will probably find at least one too good. Chinese Democracy won against the fellas at Warwick before defying a 3lb rise last time and going in at Lingfield. This return to 7f is a positive, and we will follow the filly in form to defy her penalty.
