Verdict
Serenity Spa can get involved if lasting home over today's longer trip and the same can be said of recent Chepstow winner Equitissa. Raskova and Fatima's Gift have plenty of scope as they make their handicap debuts and may get involved but 6f winner Russian Royale is another with something to prove over middle-distances. ROSIE REBEL made a promising start handicapping for the first time when third at Goodwood and, dropped in class off the same mark today, Rae Guest's filly can get her head back in front.
