Verdict

Algheed's two career victories have been on Polytrack though she performed with credit in two 6f handicaps here in November. Valentinka is up 7lb for an easy course and distance victory in August but her rider's claim completely nullifies the extra. QUEEN OF BURGUNDY completed a hat-trick in the summer and has performed well on Tapeta at Southwell the last twice so can return to winning ways. Piffle has only won on Turf and has never run here but Saorla gained her only success over the track and trip and found a mile stretching her stamina at Southwell on New Year's Day.
