Verdict

Running well in defeat last year, a switch to a new yard may be just the trick for ARCTIC SOFIA who makes her debut for Gordon Elliott here. The mare can see off the attentions of Coral Blue, a winner over C&D last month and the improving Bridge Native, who may be suited by the drop in trip.
