Verdict
An impossible handicap on the face of it, though the favourite has won the last two renewals and the unbeaten NEW PROVIDENCE is likely to start somewhere near the head of the betting. She won her handicap debut with the minimum of fuss at Doncaster, beating Cajoling in the process, and can complete the hat-trick. Panda Spirit failed to land the odds over 7f here last time while Dittander steps up in trip having won both starts over 5f. Savoy Showgirl is upped 8lb for a cosy win at Ascot but Prize Exhibit makes her handicap bow after dotting up on the all-weather and is interesting. East Coast Lady beat Lacing easily enough over track and trip last month while both Enlace and L'Addition made winning debuts and are others to consider along with Feeling Easy.
