Verdict

Shammah hasn’t raced since since going close at Newbury in August but is rated 79 and has to come into the reckoning. MINHAAJ failed to land the odds over today’s trip at Wolverhampton last month but came up against Auchterarder, who is now rated 87. She should find this easier and gets another chance. Irish filly Lapses Linguae ran well on a recent trip over to Kempton though that was over 6f while Gowanlad finished a lot closer over course and distance recently without threatening the winner. Katelli is out of a winning sprinter and a newcomer to note for Richard Fahey’s yard.
