Verdict

The progressive CHORAL MUSIC was winning her fourth race of the year when successful at Leicester. A cosy winner despite the narrow margin, she’s taken to defy a hike in the weights. Several of the opposition have been threatening to get their heads in front including Yarmouth runner-up Catoca and Margie's Choice, placed at Kempton on her handicap debut. Topmeup and stablemate Lady Alavesa have both placed recently and Sudona is another to consider now handicapping.
