Verdict

APPEAL was sent off favourite on her handicap debut at Lingfield a week ago and showed the anticipated improvement stepping up in trip. She gets to stretch out another furlong here and is a winner without a penalty for landing last week's apprentices race. Vittachi is also on the upgrade and should figure after scoring twice at Catterick last month, but Body Language's recent win at Redcar looks stronger form and she makes more appeal. Ninfea is another recent winner but this looks tougher than the handicap she won at this track last time.
