Verdict

Joyful Star was winning for only the second time when successful over 7f here and has been raised 7lb. MIMIC’S MEMORY is preferred in a poor handicap as she was narrowly beaten off a higher mark over track and trip last year and was placed on her latest start. Urban Spirit finished closer here last time but that was in maiden company but War Of Succession continues to tumble down the weights.
