      Verdict

      Mark Johnston's stable are in good form at present and Regal Connection might be up to taking this, with Nesno and Truly Fruitful the pair taken to chase her home. The selection ran well in a competitive fillies' handicap at York last time behind Flying Clarets. She looks to have been found a suitable opportunity here and with ground conditions to suit she gets the vote. Nesno was a little unlucky behind Formal Decree over this course and distance last time and as that race has worked out well this colt has to enter calculations. Truly Fruitful finished narrowly behind Nesno here last time and he is 1lbs better off with that rival here, so strictly speaking should reverse the form. Suits Me has yet to sparkle this season and is difficult to back with any confidence, and for the winner we will return to Regal Connection.
