Verdict

Second over track and trip early last month, Greased Lightning gets cheekpieces having missed the break last time at Salisbury. Hurtle had Mirabello Bay well behind here last month and the latter finished ahead of Lexington Hero at Newbury 11 days ago. Ayr winner ALPINA EXPRESS (NAP) easily completed a double at Carlisle and a penalty may not be enough to thwart a quick-fire hat-trick for Charlie Johnston’s improving filly.
