Verdict

This poor claimer looks best left to Missie Baileys, with Vanishing Dancer, North Walk and Champagne Shadow seen as the main dangers. Winning form is a bit thin on the ground here, but the selection did at least get her head in front in a similar contest on Turf at Windsor ten-days ago. On the official ratings, Laura Mongan's mare appeared to have it to do, but picked up well off a strong pace to score. She has no more to do here, and is fancied to follow up. Vanishing Dancer has been plying his trade over jumps, but was successful in a class 6 handicap at Wolverhampton back in March. He does have winning form then, but will probably find today's trip on the short side. North Walk has been running over hurdles all year without impressing, and both his Flat wins have come on Turf, so he is hard to put forward with joint topweight, but Champagne Shadow, three times a winner here, could prove troublesome off his current mark. The one to beat though is Missie Baileys.
