Verdict

Probably one of those races where it is best to keep the wallet closed, but those fancying a punt should take a chance on Favia, who went well here over this trip on her penultimate start and can improve on that now she is dropped back to 7f again. Her yard's good form is also a plus. Our Chelsea Blue has been knocking on the door for some time now without getting her nose in front. She should also go well enough, though her trainer is not in red hot form at present and that is enough to put us off here. Gerard Butler has a good record here and runs Compton Drake, though his first three outings have hardly been inspirational and even if he does go better on this surface he needs to show more before attracting our money. Of the remainder Paso Doble has been given a chance after a 12lb drop recently. She likes the track and trip and has place claims.
