Verdict

Ellie In The Pink has been found wanting in three previous tries in this grade and her winning run may be brought to an end here. MRS GREELEY still appears on the upgrade, however, and should have no trouble confirming latest Chepstow running with Lucky Meadows despite the 6lb higher mark - a hat-trick beckons. Colorado Gold and Apollo D'Negro also bring winning form into the race while Da Ponte and Loving Thought could both figure if back to their best, though the latter does occasionally save a little for herself. Uppercut and Snow Trooper are usually thereabouts but neither has a particularly high strike rate.
