This is anybody’s race but FRANCA FLORIO is at least proven in this grade after winning at York recently and she gets the nod on that basis. Clef narrowly beat Miss Sugars and Appointed in a Class 4 handicap at Doncaster with Funky Footsteps further behind while Rajar and Whiteley have also won lower grade handicaps. Parsnip made a winning start at Chepstow and is preferred to Jumping Around, Tiburtina and Pranceleya of the maiden winners while Mark Johnston’s duo Camargue and Sea Of Snow drop in class along with Groupie as all three make their handicap debuts.
