Verdict
It was soft ground when Waves won at Bath recently and she’s raised 9lb while the going was also soft when Sister Dude scored at Ayr last season. Singing Sands is usually thereabouts without looking like getting her head in front but Whiteley is back on a winning mark. MESHAYKH returned to action with a modest fifth at Kempton but Sir Michael Stoute’s filly may prove good enough in an uninspiring contest now handicapping for the first time.
