Verdict

It took Exchequer 32 attempts to win on Turf having beaten Monaadhil to land a classified contest over track and trip a week ago. AMELIA R is preferred as she scored by four lengths at Beverley last time and should go close again in this company. Bibbidibobbidiboo placed in a claimer between her more usual poor efforts and Kiskadee may improve now handicapping for the first time.
