Verdict

FACT OR FABLE (NAP) could only manage third on slow ground here last time but had Diamondsinthesand back in third when winning over track and trip before that and beat Wiff Waff when scoring here earlier in the year. Letter Of The Law wasn’t beaten far when fourth at the track and the same comment applies to Newbury fourth Ticket To Alaska. Silver Diva placed in a classified race at Brighton recently and Gilt Edge slips further down the weights.
