In depth

Verdict

Subtle Knife has been thereabouts at Chelmsford of late without being good enough, though has the beating of Venus Grace on recent running. Queen Of Skies scored over track and trip in December and has every chance off her current mark if at her best but Solarmaite remains 8lb higher than when winning over 1m3f here nearly a year ago. Flamborough Breeze is another capable of getting involved but SCHOTTISCHE came up against higher rated rivals in a claimer last time and gets the vote on her earlier handicap victory over course and distance when Queen Of Skies was well beaten.
