      Verdict

      PERFECT BLOSSOM is on a roll and she can win again at the main expense of Six Diamonds and La Fortunata. Kevin Ryan's rapidly improving filly was always in charge at Catterick last time and although she continues to head up the ratings she might be able to prevail under her latest penalty, especially with her capable jockey's 5lb claim. Six Diamonds looks the main danger if running up to the form of her Warwick success; she is only 4lb higher in the weights today and still looks fairly-treated on her old form. Lucky Flyer ran in a better race than this last time and is not discounted with Ryan Moore up for the first time, La Fortunata is finding it hard to win but her Kempton run last time looks solid, whilst Starwatch ran a rare bad race at Goodwood last month and is hard to fancy after that. Not a penalty kick by any means but Perfect Blossom is fancied to win again.
