Verdict

Firenze Rosa has been well beaten twice off this mark since winning at Windsor. Manumission is 0-11 and has only managed to place at Wolverhampton so far while Glamorous Breeze failed to follow up a third at Windsor when unplaced at Lingfield. CHERISH will likely be a warm order as she’s been heading in the right direction this year with two victories at Bath, partnered by Mollie Phillips latterly.
