Verdict
On A Whim carries 6lb extra after winning a Class 7 event here a week ago. She will find this tougher and it could be the turn of QUEEN ZAIN in this. Beaten less than a length when third at Chelmsford last time, Charlie Fellowes' filly can race off the same mark today and open her account. Stanlow had been thereabouts before a poor effort here last week and Celtic Artisan has placed off similar marks before though has only won over hurdles so far.
