Verdict
SILVER FOREVER failed to quicken when favourite for a Listed race at Huntingdon after a winning start under Rules at Chepstow but she’s the one to beat in this, even though softer going would have been preferable. Eyes Right was staying on over 1m5f at Newbury so the four-year-old will be suited by this step up in trip. Subway Surf made all and stayed on strongly to score at Ludlow and can’t be ignored along with well-bred Warwick winner Lunar Baby. Newcomers worth a market check include Maria Francesca and Mystic Dreamer.
