      Verdict

      Rayaa was in good form in the autumn, scoring at Chelmsford in November. She's only up 3lb and should make a bold bid despite her absence. VIGEE LE BRUN has now gone 14 starts without winning but wasn't beaten far at Beverley last week and should be getting off the mark soon so gets the vote in this modest handicap. Savannah Moon was a bit hit and miss last season, though her victory at Carlisle came on ground with some give and she's only 1lb higher. Stosur hasn't won since 2016 and has been in moderate form on the all-weather
