Verdict

Shypen, Carolinae and Bint Arcano have all won on the all-weather this year and are much better on artificial surfaces. Lavetta would be a poignant winner and she should be all the better for her run at Newmarket, where she was a little keen, but HELLS BABE looks the one to be on. Back to winning ways under a positive ride at Doncaster last month, she has Ali Rawlinson’s claim in her favour today and can confirm Town Moor running with second and third, Florenza and Company Asset, despite worse terms. Lil Sophella is only 2lb higher than when winning this last year but is having her first outing of the campaign.
