Verdict

Get the pin out again, just ten runners but all can be given some sort of chance. In the end we have come down on the side of Ashes, with Muara and Gifted Lass the best alternatives. The selection returned from a winter holiday to run an excellent race at Musselburgh recently, just tiring in the closing stages. She will be all the better for that outing and looks the best option in a wide open contest. Muara disappointed last time out but had previously won well on this course. The stable is going well and a big run can be expected. Gifted Lass landed a couple of races at the turn of the year and has not done badly since. She should make her presence felt once again. Another with each-way claims is Baileys Outshine, but the more likely winner is Ashes and she gets out vote.
