Verdict
Collodi is only a plater but tries hard and one of his recent seconds came when only beaten a nose by Enforcement at Plumpton on similar terms. MILLIE THE MINX (NAP) has already won twice here and was running well again when falling last time. She’s been given plenty of time to get over that and can bounce back. None of the others make much appeal on recent form.
