Verdict

It may be worth forgiving SOCKSY a poor run at Hereford last time as her previous form, when fourth to her progressive and Festival-bound stablemate Colin's Sister looks a quality piece of form in this contest. The first time tongue tie today may give an indication of the problem at Hereford and if it has the desited effect, she could take some beating here. Pearl Royale has some good form to her name but her weak finishing could be an issue here. Cascaye, for a yard that do well here, might prove best of the rest. 1. Socksy 2. Pearl Royale 3. Cascaye
