Verdict
Silvestre De Sousa made all on MOI AUSSIE here last week for a comprehensive victory and a 6lb penalty doesn't look enough to prevent the combination striking again. Swilly Sunset, who finished fourth, was going on at the finish and should get closer without reversing the places. Whispered Kiss was well beaten on her only Turf start at Windsor in October but has improved on the all-weather and was only caught right on the line at Wolverhampton by today's rival Caribbean Spring. The Special One has yet to win and Win Lose Draw ran poorly when well supported at Chelmsford.
