        Verdict

        SNOWY WINTER (NAP) has a 9lb hike in the weights to contend with but won by four lengths over course and distance last time and there should be more to come from Archie Watson’s progressive filly on this surface. She beat Epitaph on that occasion and the latter has subsequently boosted the form by winning here during the week while L'inganno Felice has winning form at the track though is 10lb higher than his latest success. Starplex is unexposed for his age and could figure if taking to the Fibresand. He’s preferred to stablemate Kensington Star.
