Verdict

A dual winner as a novice, MORE THAN LIKELY has come up short in handicaps but is clear at the weights in this seller. Richard Hughes’ filly should come out best if running anywhere near her handicap rating. Chikoko Trail won at this level over 7f here last month and Harry Beau has been beaten less than a length the last twice now though Disruptor is weighted to beat both on these terms. Devil Or Angel won at Brighton recently but along with Terri Rules has plenty to find at the weights.
