    Verdict

    Xian Express won a poor seller at Chelmsford before struggling back in a handicap last week but will do well to get the better of LILI WEN FACH on these terms. The latter wasn’t at her best at Southwell when last in action but races on this surface for the first time and gets a change of headgear. David Evan’s grey filly is also weighted to beat the remainder though Egotistic will be sharper for a recent comeback and Rocking My Boat is the least exposed as he drops down in trip.
