Verdict

Untold Melody finished second at Catterick in October and, given her half-brother handled the Fibresand, she could figure on her reappearance. Dartrix is related to a winning sprinter and is worth noting on her racecourse debut, while Forever Hope showed a bit more last time on her first start for new connections but drops back in trip today. ADILI looked likely to finish runner-up to Kickingthelily here in February but his jockey dropped his hands close home and he ended up fourth. The winner went on to complete a hat-trick so the form looks rock solid and Brian Ellison's charge can get off the mark here.
