It could pay to stick with FADILLAH despite her return from a lay-off. The Haggas filly remains unbeaten after winning her handicap debut at Nottingham in May and is only 3lb higher today. The other winners all step up in class including the hat-trick seeking Ocean Ready while Panko and Kismet Hardy have both been beaten off today’s mark since winning at Chepstow and Newbury respectively. The maiden winner Reconcilliation, Street Poet, Match My Fire and The Otmoor Poet are less exposed types worthy of a second glance.
