        Verdict

        LEAFHOPPER makes a belated return to action having made a successful debut last year when beating a subsequent winner at Newmarket. A full sister to a Group 2 winner, the Godolphin filly will likely prove a warm order in this though will have to run up to a decent level given Model Guest is rated 80. That should give Archie Watson’s filly the edge over Egrecio on these terms now back in novice company but the latter’s stablemate Gumra looks a likely improver.
