Verdict

Song In My Heart is back with Jonjo O'Neill after a short spell with Niall Madden in Ireland but will have to improve significantly on previous efforts to land this. Hi Ho Silvia won twice in April and was well backed when fourth at Wetherby on her latest start but she finished some way adrift of Glan Lady that day and there seems no reason why Neil King's mare should reverse that form on identical terms here. Connections had to wait a long time for DRIVING MISS SUZIE to win her first race but she showed a pleasing attitude to score over C&D last week and could easily defy the penalty in this.
