Verdict
Lethal doesn't win often enough to be a strong fancy, though he did finish second here last time with Tenancy and STYLISTICKHILL in third and fourth respectively. The latter was having only her fourth run and returning from a nine week break on that occasion and Dandy Nicholls' filly is fancied to reverse running and get off the mark today. Princess Dayna had Refusetosurrender behind when scoring at Wolverhampton on Friday and, along with Gracie's Gift, could prove best of the rest.
