Verdict

SUNBULA had National Poet, who runs earlier on the card, back in third when landing a maiden race at Warwick. Charlie Hills' filly makes more appeal on her handicap bow than Astrum. The latter has found only one too good on his last couple of starts but has crept up the weights as a result while Duchess Of Gazeley has been upped the usual 6lb for winning a lesser grade event at Lingfield last month. Dual Polytrack winner Paddy's Saltantes is struggling for form but the lightly-raced Sultanah Heyam is another open to improvement handicapping for the first time.
