Verdict

Puds made all to win at Windsor last time and takes on older sprinters today with SHOW STEALER preferred. The latter scored over course and distance on her latest start and remains on a winning mark despite a 3lb rise. Rae Guest’s filly should also have the measure of course regular Powerful Dream with the latter raised in class but Justice Lady won off a similar mark at Sandown last year and makes more appeal than Global Rose.
