When Not Iff is comfortably the pick on official ratings but she hasn't been seen for well over a year and her two victories have come on fast ground. Chocolate Hills has always competed at a higher level than this though mainly over the minimum trip. She's performed well on soft ground and looks a big threat to all but BOGINI is in such good heart that she's taken to complete the hat-trick. She scored very easily at Bath before defying a penalty at Sandown and the soft ground suits her perfectly. Caprella was just touched off at Naas in May and her latest run was in a Listed contest so this represents a big drop in class.
