Verdict

There was some cut in the ground when Lady Poppy scored at Catterick but it was fast going at Carlisle when Lady Ibrox got off the mark. Body And Soul showed a big improvement on her debut sixth to score at Ripon three weeks ago but FORRAY makes most appeal. He's shown good progress in every start, culminating in a recent victory in testing ground at Leicester, and Ed McMahon's colt can continue on his upward curve today. C&D winner Mayfield Girl takes a drop in class and is not out of this either.
