Verdict

Knotty Ash Girl, Theatre Belle and Too Posh To Share are three against the field in a desperate seller and the vote is given to Knotty Ash Girl. The selection was a fair third in a better race behind Sunley Future last time out. That form looks rock solid in the context of this race and under conditions that suit he need only run up to that mark to win this. Theatre Belle rates the main danger on his latest fifth behind Real Chief but he gave the impression he would be seen to better effect over a longer trip on that occasion and looks opposable on that basis. Too Posh To Share was a fair second behind Breezier in similar grade last time and is another with place claims but he has had plenty of chances. Of the remainder, Carraig is dropping in grade and could improve for the fitting of a first-time visor and tongue strap and should be noted in the market but Knotty Ash Girl sets a fair standard and is taken to score.
