Verdict

Hidden Steps arrives on the back of a success at Windsor but is upped in class along with Aimez La Vie, who scored over 7f at Musselburgh. Song Maker went close at Wolverhampton recently but CLEARLY (NAP) also sports Godolphin colours for a different trainer and she gets the vote in first-time headgear having run well in a similar handicap over course and distance earlier in the month. The Gosden filly also finished ahead of Dynamic at Sandown earlier while Tai Hang Dragon makes most appeal of those at the top-end of the weights as she drops down in class.
