Verdict
EURATO has rediscovered his form and won for the third time in his last four starts when scoring by seven lengths over 1m6f here last time. Beaten only a short-head over this longer trip last month, an apprentice negates a big chunk of a 10lb rise in the weights. Tempuran kept on for second at Lingfield on his latest start and can race off the same mark while Snow Conditions ran well again at Kempton recently attempting to repeat her earlier win at the same track. Wolverhampton regular Mister Bob has won over today’s trip before and Hope You Dance has a shout on her third at Lingfield back in March.
