Verdict

Gale Force Maya won over 7f at Doncaster recently and soft ground is a worry for her while Lady Nectar’s victory at Thirsk came in Class 5f company and this is tougher. Brazen Belle is another upped in class after scoring on the all-weather while Restless Endeavour missed out on hat-trick back on Turf at Thirsk. Credible can do better in handicaps this year but RUMAYTHAH (NAP) still led entering the final furlong over 7f at Salisbury on her recent handicap debut and this return to her winning trip could see Roger Varian’s filly go close.
