    Verdict

    Marias Dream is the selection in this race with Chia and Sforzando offered up as the alternatives. Marias Dream finished second in a decent handicap at Lingfield last week and if she has come on for her first run for some time, she will set a decent standard at this level. Course regular, Chia appears fated to again find one too good. A run of 10 runners-up prizes probably tells its own tale. Sforzando is yet to get her head infront on the artifical surfaces. She does have a slight question mark over the trip as she has generally campaigned over slightly further. Hold up performer, Emily's Place continues to find winning difficult. Casablanca Minx is retried in a visor after a couple of unsuccessful forays in blinkers. Marias Dream looks the class act in this race and can give away weight all around.
