Verdict
Mistress Of Love has competed in Pattern company since winning a maiden race at Newcastle and will find this easier. Star Of War finished second at Salisbury recently without threatening the winner while Coastline made a winning return at Newcastle and Pennywhistle went close at Kempton when last in action. Sunset Flash almost defied a penalty when second at Wolverhampton on her reappearance but VIVIONN (NAP) ran into trouble at the same track on her return to action. Stumbling from the stalls and losing ground after being hampered, Sir Michael Stoute’s filly still managed to finish third and a bold bid is expected today with normal luck in-running.
