Verdict

Wintercrack won a maiden here back in April but KAMANIKA also scored over track and trip in June and won again on soft going at Sandown last month. She should cope with the testing ground but it was fast underfoot when Barney's Angel won at Windsor earlier and Macho Sun is fitted with cheekpieces still looking for a first win. Hystery Bere scored over fences back in May and Swinging London was last seen over hurdles in the same month.
