In depth

Verdict

Her Indoors won on the Turf at Lingfield last month and could go well upped in trip along with CAPLA HUNTRESS. The latter was winning for the fourth time in five outings when scoring at Wolverhampton and the manner of her latest success suggested this extra distance will suit. Perfect Arch showed no progress last time but Let Rip was beaten only a neck over 1m3f at Kempton and is also preferred to the returning Manucci and the handicap debutant Byron Hill.
