This is an ordinary contest and one that may be easily within the grasp of Lizzie Wiggins, who rates as the best option. Flying Valentino and Papa's Princess are others capable of making this a good test. The last named has experience of this course and, having been given a chance by the assessor, she should not be underestimated. Flying Valentino ran her best race for some time when she finished fourth at Catterick last time out. This step up in trip may open new doors for her and the top weight is one to monitor closely. Mystical Ayr would also have a chance on the best of her form and looks the best of the rest. However, Lizzie Wiggins has already fared well against a stronger calibre of opponent and she is taken as the best betting proposition here.
