In depth

Verdict

LADY BOWES (NAP) was sent off at odds of 100/1 at Carlisle on her reappearance but found only one too good and beat a subsequent winner in the process. James Moffat’s mare looks capable of opening her account in this. Timetoroe is upped in trip after finishing second at Fontwell recently without threatening the winner while Orient Sunset ran well for a long way here on last month’s debut and both are preferred to the returning Milanvera. She's A Rocca is related to a host of winners and makes more appeal than Charm Offensive of the newcomers.
