Verdict

Russian Bullet had been holding his form well in handicap company until a below par effort at Wolverhampton last time and is capable of going close. He had subsequent winner Tiablo behind at the same track earlier this year while the latter beat Miss Purity Pinker when recording her victory. However, ARABIAN FLIGHT finished ahead of Marie's Fantasy when third in a more competitive claimer at Lingfield a week ago and John Bridger's filly looks capable of landing this with a similar effort. Dark Ages is not out of this at the weights but is having her first start since October.
