Verdict

Young Jackie has the best recent form but over longer distances and failed in her bid to land a hat-trick here last month. Indian Violet carries a penalty for last week's victory although this doesn't look much tougher but Sinchiroka has struggled since winning in lesser company at Wolverhampton in January. Avon Supreme steps up a grade on the back of a second at Kempton but a tentative vote goes the way of EXOPUNTIA, also a recent runner-up at Kempton with first-time blinkers fitted today and a decent apprentice on board.
