In depth

Verdict

Cash For Steel should make a bold bid off her current mark dropping back down in class. But the less exposed MISS BISCOTTI is just preferred given she ran well before fading in the closing stages of her comeback run over 2m4f here and there should be more to come. Barton Heather won off a similar mark at Fontwell back in June while Blue Sea Of Ibrox posted a better effort at Wetherby last time.
