In depth

Verdict

An open looking, low grade handicap. Affectionate Lady is in good heart and will be competitive, but is handicapped to the hilt at the moment and the same can probably be said of Joyful Star. Saltarello is on a favourable mark but his last two outings haven’t been that promising, so the tentative selection is TOFFEE APPLE. The lightly raced three-year-old has shown improved form for her switch to the Keith Dalgleish yard and conditions should suit here.
