Screen Test can beat the older Annie Fleetwood, with Beauchamp Star and Joli Classical best of the rest. Although still a maiden under both codes, Screen Test has shown enough to suggest that her turn is near, especially over timber. The four-year-old was third to Cirrious on fast ground at Newton Abbot a fortnight ago, and is fancied to step up on that over this slightly longer trip and in receipt of weight from Annie Fleetwood. The latter was not given too hard a time when eased into second behind Colorado Pearl at Wincanton recently on what was her first outing in nearly three years. She was ridden to get the trip that day and may be better suited to this less exacting journey so should be involved in the finish. Beauchamp Star was only Banded class on the level and is best watched on her debut, while Joli Classical has had few opportunities and not taken them. Screen Test has the most scope and is the one to be on.
