      Verdict

      From a shortlisted trio of La Adelita, Taazur and Calahonda, we'll side with LA ADELITA. Michael Bell's filly justified odds on favouritism last time out to break her maiden at the second time of asking. She came on from a debut at Newbury, a race that's working out well. Taazur looks an improving sort too, and usually towards the vanguard, but has so far always found or two too good for him. The step up to 7 furlongs for the first time could do the trick. Calahonda should find the trip suits more than the mile she was stepped up too after her course and distance success here last month. She's also got weight in hand over all bar one of her rivals. Several certainly have strong claims, but we'll side with La Adelita.
