Verdict
Black Truffle is incredibly consistent but he's 8-75 on the all-weather and 0-10 on Turf so is probably worth opposing. Prominna is on the same mark as when successful at Lingfield in September and will be better for his recent run while Burauq won here last July and generally goes well on the track. Major Assault only won a very low grade handicap at Lingfield in January and is 2lb higher while Langley Vale's victory here in September was on ground with plenty of give. MOOROVERTHEBRIDGE has had very little experience and was a 50/1 chance on her reappearance at Windsor but she belied her odds with a fine effort and wouldn't need much more to be successful here.
