Verdict
Our Folly is a couple of pounds better off than when beaten a length-and-a half by Annaluna at Chepstow but we'll take David Evans' in-form mare to confirm the form as she can be forgiven a subsequent effort on the Polytrack. However, she's 5lb worse off than when beating TASTE THE WINE at Chepstow earlier, when Captain Sharpe was fourth, so Philip Prince's mount looks the one to be on today. Bilidn and Riptide were both unfancied and well beaten in the same race at Newbury 12 days ago.
