In depth
Verdict
Michelle Ma Belle is progressing with experience and scored with plenty in hand when landing a Bath maiden over 5f last time. There should be more to come from this likeable type particularly for the step up in trip and the daughter of Shareef Dancer holds a solid each way chance from a favourable low draw. Clocking Off has been well placed to notch three wins and was far from disgraced in defeat last time but looks to have more to do at this level and, along with B A Highflyer, has a wide berth to overcome. Sulzano looks nothing out of the ordinary judged on her efforts in maiden company but represents a powerful stable and may do better on her handicap bow. Tamarella improved for the step up to this trip when causing an upset last time but won't find this easy under a 6lb penalty and may have to settle for a place at best.
