      Verdict

      Not a race that will take much winning and Columbine is taken to follow up a recent course and distance success. Alan Berry's filly impressed with a willing attitude on that particular occasion and similar waiting tactics could pay dividends once again despite a subsequent 4lb rise. Inching has been knocking on the door in handicaps on the all-weather of late but has never raced on turf and it remains to be seen whether she will prove as effective on this surface. Erracht is not the easiest to predict but has claims if on a going day while College Maid has plenty to find with the selection on recent C&D running.
