A wide open fillies’ handicap but Inclination has been thoroughly consistent this summer and was arguably unfortunate to finish third last time though, off her current mark, she could be vulnerable to improvers. The same can be said of Windsor second Pretty Bubbles and One Big Surprise, who was disappointing when last seen at Kempton. SWEET DRAGON FLY only finished fourth on her handicap debut but should have learnt from the experience and has more potential than most of these. Newbury fourth Souville can chase her home.
