Verdict

Not a red hot contest and SUZI SPENDS is taken to defy a 6lb penalty and score from Oat Cuisine and Red And White. The selection loves it here, having form figures here of 31231, and she stuck on very well to land a course and distance handicap a week ago. The penalty won't help, but she looks capable of following up. Oat Cuisine rattled off a hat-trick over both this trip and a mile before running with credit in defeat at Ascot last time. This looks a stiff enough mark now but in a weak race she can go close. Red And White was just touched off over 10f at Windsor last time and she is open to improvement, so she could be the big danger to selection. Mystery Sail represents an in-form yard and is capable of improvement for this step up in trip, and Rio Guru can get competitive from her current mark, but we'll take Suzi Spends to score.
