Verdict

Rosina, three times a winner as a juvenile, looked on the way back to form when a close third at Ripon and though she has a length to make up on Rose Marmara, who finished runner-up, she's taken to reverse the form and get into the frame again. GWENDOLYN reappeared with a victory at Ripon and though beaten in her subsequent races she has performed with credit, especially when close up in a Class 2 handicap at Newmarket in June. This represents a drop in grade and she can return to winning ways. Fruit Salad scored on Polytrack in November and has been going well on soft ground in her recent starts so any rain would greatly enhance her prospects. Jenniechild arrives from Ireland with useful form having landed a juvenile contest at the Curragh and been narrowly beaten in her two starts at Cork this summer.
