Verdict

A devilishly difficult fillies' handicap. Hameem and Bella Vita have run up sequences but have plenty more work to do from their revised handicap marks in order to continue to progress. David Simcock saddles two runners including the 2018 third White Chocolate who wouldn't be at all inconvenienced by a rain shower or two, while Sneaky Peek remains unexposed and represents Andrew Balding who took this race 12 months ago with Maid Up. However, the very tentative advice is to side with the consistent and stamina-laden DONO DI DIO who might fare better again for the more experienced handling of Liam Keniry.
  1. Dono di Dio
