    Verdict

    Connections of Ken's Girl will hoping the scheduled rain arrives as she scored in heavy ground at Chepstow last month and has only been raised 1lb for that narrow-margin success. Bella Noir was below par despite finishing runner-up in a seller at Hamilton last time and apprentice Michael Metcalfe transfers to stablemate MAGIC DESTINY for this. His claim means the latter can race off a lower mark than when scoring over C&D in April so Elaine Burke's filly gets the nod. Fenella Fudge scored over 7f last month but has struggled in previous starts over today's trip including her latest start at Newmarket.
