Verdict
Relative Choice ran poorly over 6f last time having earlier won a nursery over today’s trip at Wolverhampton with Red Carpet Queen back in third. The latter has subsequently finished behind runner-up SICILIAN BELLE at Yarmouth and Bob Cowell’s filly gets the vote to go one better and open her account. Likely Successor never threatened when second at Chepstow a week ago while Hotalena and Bamby Splishsplash may improve now handicapping.
