In depth

Verdict

Sulafaat failed to cope with a rise in the weights last time having won over track and trip before that but Phoenix Approach went close again having earlier scored over 1m2f at Beverley. Spanish Kiss and I Can't Remember were both placed on their latest starts with the former preferred on a third over today’s trip at Lingfield but BELLATRIXSA is the least exposed. Michael Dods’ filly was narrowly beaten in maiden company over 1m2f at Ayr with the rest nowhere and this longer distance should suit now handicapping. Mesmeric is another handicapping for the first time having won at Southwell early in the year.
