Verdict

ADIYNARA returned to winning ways over 1m3f here last time and this extra distance is no problem. With most of the opposition struggling at present, she can go in again. Dazzling Valentine and Isdaal have both slipped down the handicap recently and have won off higher marks in the past. Princess Willow went close in a lower grade race over track in trip in December but has finished nearer last in a couple of subsequent starts, so Lily Edge looks the biggest threat on last week's third to King Olav at this track.
