Verdict
Costa Filey finished runner-up over track and trip a fortnight ago with Swiss Cross in close attendance and previous winner Manipura and Encapsulated further behind. Poplar is another to consider on last week’s second here given he can race off the same mark but it could pay to stick with WHIPPHOUND, who is raised 4lb for last month’s success at Wolverhampton having slid down the weights before that. Life of Fame is unexposed and could go well on only her second start of the year.
