Verdict
Richard Fahey has got his string in good form at present and Amanada Carter can provide him with another winner; the chief dangers look to be Suzi's Decision and Molly Ann. The selection won an apprentice handicap at Doncaster time and as she escapes a penalty for that success she could be a good thing to follow-up here. Suzi¿s Decision was returning from a break last time out and she shaped with plenty of encouragement in chasing home Maghya at Newmarket. She should come on for that effort and she can go well. Molly Ann wasn¿t disgraced at Southwell last time and she should be suited by the step-up in trip, although she may struggle to get her head in front in this company. Ed Dunlop¿s Pharaohs Queen was disappointing on her handicap debut but she could be worth another chance. However, this looks a good opportunity for Amanda Carter who is given the confident vote.
