Verdict
BASLE has the best recent form having been placed on her last four starts. The latest came over C&D last month when beaten less than a length and she can race off the same mark today. Sairaam and Irie Ute separated poor efforts with wins at Leicester and this track respectively and it's anybody's guess how that pair will perform while July Days has failed to figure since scoring here in February. Lutine Charlie is back on a winning mark if in the mood while Sermons Mount began this year on a 14lb higher mark but remains badly out of sorts.
