    In depth

    Verdict

    Backlash is the tentative selection in the finale and is marginally preferred to Missie Baileys and Tabulate. Tony Carroll's mare returned from a short break to run a fair fourth in a handicap over course and distance earlier this month. She was beaten under 5 lengths and she wouldn't need to improve too much on that showing to be take a race of this nature. It's a cause for concern that she's still a maiden after fourteen all-weather starts but that could change tonight. Missie Baileys has yet to win here but has scored at Wolverhampton and Lingfield and the pick of her form entitles her to be in the mix. Tabulate disappointed at Southwell last time but that run should have blown away any cobwebs and she has run well here in the past. She's yet to convince that she wants this trip though and the claims of Backlash are preferred.
