Verdict

Wagtail will take the beating here with Diamond De Triano and Toffee Vodka worth noting. The selection carries a six pound penalty after her latest success at Windsor so connections must feel she is better treated with a penalty rather than waiting to be reassessed by the handicapper so that is a tip in itself. She won on her debut at Lingfield and has not stopped improving since so is one to note in the market. Diamond De Triano has been nothing but consistent this season winning at Nottingham and Carlisle this season already. She has risen in the rating as a consequence and looked exposed when second to the selection Wagtail last time out so for that reason is best watched. Toffee Vodka ran a personal best at Wolverhampton last time out when second to Kindlelight Debut and another run like that will see him go close but for the winner we return to there progressive Wagtail.
