Verdict

Lexington Grace has done well to win three times in her first season. Course, ground and trip all suit and she has Rossa Ryan’s claim in her favour today. Richard Hannon also runs Zalshah, who finished a place ahead of Alifax when second last time at Salisbury. George has been placed twice over 6f, including on soft going, but is giving 14lb to SHREWD APPROACH. Simon Crisford’s filly was aiming too high last time at Newmarket but had won on soft ground at Catterick earlier and the booking of De Sousa looks a sign of intent. Paramount Love has been thereabouts in all five starts and that should be the case again here.
