Verdict

Sahara Silk recorded her first win on turf last time out, is still well treated on her all-weather form and is fancied to notch a double here against some fairly modest opponents. Muara has more scope than most and scored on her handicap debut at Redcar on Saturday. She would have to be feared if reappearing so quickly, while Stargem is generally a better horse on sand, and most of her better form on turf has come on a soft surface. The others make little appeal, so we'll go with Sahara Silk. She was driven out to score in game fashion at Beverley, and is still on a mark 13 pounds lower than when winning at Southwell last year.
