Verdict
The winner of the last two renewals, PERFECT WORDS and Becky Smith bid for a treble and Majorie Fife’s charge looks to have every chance having won at Ayr last time. Red Forever finished runner-up last year and can go close again while Lexington Place has slid down the weights and was placed under Emily Bullock at Leicester last time. Groundworker saves his best for the all-weather nowadays while Palavicini Run debuts for Linda Perratt and won off a much higher mark in Ireland last year.
