Verdict
Cheek-pieces could squeeze more improvement out of the Chepstow winner Zambezi Queen , but a softer surface would be the unknown for the Paul Cole trained filly. Therefore, despite some reservations with regards this shorter trip, the more obvious pick is the first time tongue tied (also blinkered) FASTNET SPIN . She has some reasonable efforts to her name over longer trips and appeared to handle soft ground well enough when beating all bar the progressive Peach Melba on her latest outing.
