Verdict

Literacy holds an advantage over all of her rivals being the only runner to have raced previously. Clive Brittain's charge ran green before staying on in pleasing fashion in similar company at Yarmouth earlier this month and will prove hard to beat with the experience under his belt. Barry Hills has his team in good order again and Chetak, a daughter of Halling from the family of Zindabad makes plenty of appeal while a market move for any of the others could prove significant.
