In depth
Verdict
Dancheur got her head in front when dropped into a lower grade at Yarmouth last month but finished last in similar company to this at Warwick on her latest start. Sunny Side Up showed good progress with three wins last season but has struggled off higher marks so far this year and Perfect Blossom remains 5lb higher than her latest win in September last year. This looks a good opportunity for SOMEONE'S DARLING as she went close to following up her win at Redcar when second over track and trip last month and she gets the vote.
