PETELLA is clearly on form and is given the verdict to land a third win of the season. Victory number two came last time out on soft ground at Yarmouth when she got up by six lengths and if in the same mood there's no way an 8lb mark rise stops her. Saute has a clear chance from this rating based on his run under a penalty two starts ago and he did seem to handle soft ground at Goodwood on his latest. Sparkaway has plenty to find on the pick based on their meeting in that Yarmouth race but looks one of the better placed should things go wrong for Petella.
