Dizzy G has every chance on a third in the Ayr Bronze Cup last month, though was due to run here last night. With Caution finally won a handicap when successful at Chelmsford but is 4lb higher while Alhakmah was placed at Kempton recently but that was over the longer 7f trip. WHISPER ALOUD (NAP) had little chance in Listed company last time but finished a close-up fourth in a higher grade than this at Newmarket before that when ahead of the re-opposing Lethal Angel and Irene May. A repeat effort should see Archie Watson’s filly bang there at the finish and she gets the vote.
