Verdict

ARTY CRAFTY has rock solid claims in this handicap and she is taken to complete the hat-trick at the main expense of Foxtrot Charlie and Fine Tolerance. Sir Mark Prescott's filly looks to be on an upward curve and she scored with plenty in hand at Hamilton earlier in the week when she beat Ulysees. She looks like one to keep on the right side of and she is a confident choice. Foxtrot Charlie was all-out to win over the course and distance when he beat Absinthe last time. That was a good effort but he did get the race run to suit and he is not the most consistent. Fine Tolerance has yet to get her head in front in seven attempts and although she has ability, she has so far looked more effective on the turf. The Dial House has twice run well here but he failed to see out this trip at Windsor last month and on that basis he is hard to recommend. Piquante and Transformer could have an each-way chance, but it is hard to get away from Arty Crafty and she can make it three wins on the spin.
