In depth
Verdict
Arion Fox won over 6f at Kempton on her handicap bow but is 8lb higher on her reappearance. Lethal Talent is a more recent winner at Kempton and Laura Pearson’s allowance negates a rise in the weights but the less exposed RUN THIS WAY may prove the one to side with. Beaten less than length when attempting to make all over a longer trip at Nottingham, Mark Johnston’s filly will appreciate the return to today’s trip. Arabic Charm drops in class and is preferred to Tambourine Girl of the remainder.
