In depth

Verdict

MRS BURBIDGE is a wonderfully game and consistent mare who does not know how to run a bad race. Also a useful performer over hurdles, she arrives here fresh from a decent break having been off the track since December and is taken to make a winning return. Camakasi holds Heezaraity on their most recent run and will be staying on in the latter stages when others have had enough but a bigger threat to the selection should come in the shape of Omotesando . The seven-year-old is running really well and will be looking to follow up his recent success. Avocadeau and Nouvelle Ere are others to consider.
