Verdict

Illysantachristina finally came good at Plumpton last month but has more to do here off an 8lb higher mark. Empress Orchid has won at Newcastle and Uttoxeter this year and should find this easier than the Listed race she contested at Newbury last time, though she may have trouble confirming earlier running with Lesanda on today's terms. Maria Antonia and Monkhair should strip fitter for recent runs but there must be a good chance than MAVALENTA will improve for the step up in trip and her Taunton fourth suggested she is on the upgrade.
