Verdict

Sheila’s Hope has been in sparkling form but has gone up 13lb for her latest success and will struggle to win again off her new mark. Dawn Hoofer has also been heavily penalised for her win at the Curragh last month, and Night Of Power doesn’t appear to be well suited by the prevailing conditions, so it could be worth taking a chance on SEREFELI. Admittedly, he hasn’t achieved much in two outings this season, but is back on a winning mark and will relish this 10 furlongs on fast going. Course and distance winner Vastonea is also on a handy mark and worth watching on his seasonal debut.
