    Verdict

    BROUGHTONS FANCY comes out best at the weights and has placed form in testing ground. She won a seller at Wolverhampton in February, Silvestre De Sousa takes over the reins today and should have the edge over Bahamian Sunshine on these terms. The latter was third in heavy going at Redcar recently but Deben never figured on the all-weather a week ago and gets first-time headgear for this. Connie O'meara has yet to race but it doesn't bode well making her debut at this level.
