In depth
Verdict
Rated 88, TERRICHANG is difficult to oppose. She disappointed at Haydock last time but had placed in a Listed contest at Ripon before that and will take the beating if running anywhere near that level today. Haven Lady has plenty to find on these terms and Evening Song may prove a bigger threat having finished a close-up fifth at Wolverhampton on her debut. The remaining trio have yet to threaten and make no appeal.
