    Verdict

    Menalippe was 2-2 over track and trip last year but she’s fully exposed and has looked high enough in the weights in her two runs this term. Star Sound was second over course and distance when making her handicap debut and having a first run on Turf and Annie Law was also making her debut on this surface when third at Doncaster last month. TORFRIDA wasn’t really enjoying her self on heavy going here on debut but still finished third. She then went to Doncaster and made all and should be even better on this quicker going.
