Verdict

Both Intrigue and Inflexiball returned losing favourites last time and the former is having her first start of the year. SIGNED AND SEALED makes more appeal as he has every chance on today’s terms and Mark Johnston’s charge was beaten only a length when runner-up in a handicap at Beverley during the week. Hidden Gem also has claims off her current mark though she has yet to threaten in maiden company and Perceysvivace looks best of the remainder on her recent run at Haydock.
