      Verdict

      MINA VELOUR has placed in decent handicaps at Haydock and Thirsk since returning from a break and looks poised to open her account for Julie Camacho here racing off the same mark. Zim Baby had Princes Des Sables four lengths behind when third at Pontefract and should have few problems confirming that form. Never In Paris hasn’t won since her debut but has twice run well in big-field handicaps at Ayr this season so makes more appeal than course and distance winner Kindly.
