        Verdict

        EPOQUE will never be a stable star but is likely to be a warm order here and looks the one to be on. A half-sister to four winners, she made a promising debut at Newmarket in September and though running only moderately on her reappearance over 1m1f at Wolverhampton she gets a good opportunity to enhance her paddock value here. Sabore ran her best race over this trip on fast ground at Redcar and has faces much softer conditions on her most recent starts while Three Darlings made a promising debut on good going at York in October and didn't appreciate more testing conditions on her reappearance at Musselburgh.
