        Verdict

        Rose Bien, Call Me George and Paradise Flight are the three against the field in this tricky affair, and Rose Bien is taken to maintain her good recent form. Rose Bien has been in good form on the all weather and has a Wolverhampton win to her credit. Her latest success came at Folkestone and she has proved that the trip holds no fears for her having been just touched off over a similar trip earlier this year. Paradise Flight has won over the trip, but his most recent win came a year ago at Pontefract. After a promising seasonal re-appearance he was backed to return to winning form last time but disappointed badly. He is respected but is best watched here. Mark Johnston's Call Me George has to go well with the stable now having turned the corner, and although he has not won since landing a little Redcar handicap earlier in the season, he has not been beaten far on his outings since. However, only four pounds higher than her recent win, Rose Bien can win again.
