Verdict

POINT AT ISSUE found only the unexposed Laffan too good over C&D on New Year's Day. Dropped in class for this quick reappearance, Dandy Nicholls' charge looks the one to beat with a similar effort. Russian Bullet has been in fine form over the minimum trip, going close here in between a couple of wins at Wolverhampton, but Heidi's Delight looks the chief danger as she beat subsequent 5f winner Lady Nickandy, Misere Mei, Son Of May and Littlecote Lady when scoring over track and trip three weeks ago.
