Verdict
Keeper's Choice won a handicap at this level at Newbury in June and her subsequent runs have been in better company. Solar Gold had been performing well until a poor run when stepping up to 1m2f at Ripon while SPACE TALK ran in snatches on her handicap debut at Haydock. The latter was only beaten just over a length and looks capable of going one better. Daisy Chain attracted support at Chepstow but had no answer to today's rival So Hoity Toity. That was the latter's first sign of form since arriving from France and with just 3lb extra to contend with will be difficult to keep out of the frame. Sudona finished last on her handicap debut at Newmarket and is hard to recommend.
