Verdict

Cane Cat has improved as the season as gone on and registered her fourth win of the year over a furlong further at this track last time. She's not easily dismissed and One of Twins could go well again after winning at Catterick recently. SO IS SHE had been plying her trade in claimers and was consequently sent off at 50/1 in handicap company at Newmarket a week ago. She belied those odds to finish a close-up fourth and Alan Bailey's filly may well get her head back in front here. C&D winner Harare looks best of the rest after a better effort on turf last week.
