    Verdict

    Asdaa went close over today’s trip at Southwell last week but VISIONARA (NAP) is preferred. The latter finished third behind Rock On Baileys, rated 92, in a conditions race at Lingfield last time and a repeat effort should see her come out best in this company with Simon Crisford’s yard in red-hot form. Soar Above was still well beaten when runner-up at Wolverhampton while Swift Approval hasn’t won on the all-weather for nearly two years with Harbour Vision and Kodiac Pride even harder to recommend in their current form.
