Verdict

Canny Style has been running with admirable consistency since she was stepped up in trip last summer but has yet to get her head in front this year and may need some relief from the handicapper, so preference is for the lightly-raced TWENTY TIMES. She didn’t appear to appreciate the track when finishing fifth at Goodwood last time and can return to the form of her winning handicap debut at this more conventional course. Salisbury third Harebell also has potential and looks a good each way prospect, along with Perfect In Pink, who didn’t stay at Haydock and can have more of an impact back at this distance. Pleasant Surprise is also of some interest on her handicap debut after failing at Listed level last time.
