Verdict

Three Little Birds had finished well ahead of Glamorous Rocket when scoring at Wolverhampton earlier but finished down the field along with Zapper Cass off today’s mark last time. She’s closely matched with CORONATION COTTAGE on earlier running at Wolverhampton but the latter re-opposes on much better terms for this and Charlie Bennett’s mare is taken to come out best on this occasion. Something Lucky is regularly in the mix though hasn’t won since the summer of last year while Chitra still looks a shade high in the weights having won on the Turf here back in June.
