      Verdict

      The ground can become very testing at the Midlands venue and more rain would probably turn the forecast soft ground to heavy. Taffeta Lady has yet to encounter deep conditions and despite being a maiden of some promise seems to be rather harshly treated for this handicap bow although the claim of the excellent Josephine Gordon will assist her cause. She'll be a real threat if handling conditions but MOTDAW does just that and was an easy winner on heavy ground at Nottingham over an extended mile in April and will have no concerns with this longer trip. She rates the safer option. Kath's Legacy, a soft ground winner, should play a prominent role, whilst Shadow Spirit retains scope for progression.
