Verdict
LORD P showed the benefit of wind surgery when easily winning a Pro-Am race at Carlisle under Fern O’Brien. He can go close again while Excessable will appreciate the return to Turf having finished second at York last month. Thread Count makes her handicap debut and may figure while Suzi's Connoisseur was beaten less than a length at Yarmouth last time. Eireann Cagney rode the winner of this in 2019 and partners Alex Gracie today while Lucky Beggar could prove best of the rest.
