Verdict

Marshgate Lane has been winning plating races but will find this much tougher while Beardwood is upped a further 4lb as he bids for a hat-trick having won over course and distance last time. Bluegrass Blues won over a mile at Kempton in October and has yet to attempt this longer trip while NATURAL SCENERY (NAP) drops back in distance having won over 1m4f at Wolverhampton with plenty in hand on her first start since July. There looks lots more to come from the Godolphin filly and she is also preferred to recent Newcastle winner Purple Rock.
