        Verdict

        Biplane appeared to run well in the Legends race at Doncaster last month but it may not pay to take that form too literally. Rock Melody is probably better over shorter trips while Glorious Angel and Kitai finished behind MERSEA at Pontefract last month. The Johnston filly met trouble in-running that day but Grant Tuer’s three-year-old can confirm that form and take this, despite the claims of Carlisle maiden winner Mubhijah. All of Shades Of Summer’s wins have come at Chelmsford.
