      Verdict

      BE ROYALE has been thereabouts in similar company recently and it could be her turn today. Crystal Malt scored over a mile at Lingfield in November and this is easier than her latest task at the same track while Ixelles Diamond had little chance on unfavourable terms with the winner when second in a seller last time and is not out of this. Mambo Fever makes her debut on Polytrack after a placed effort at Southwell and Mrs Bubbles won her maiden at Wolverhampton last month.
