Verdict
ROSIE CROWE was runner-up over a mile here last month and scored off a higher mark at the track last year. Bedazzling Lady hasn’t won anywhere yet but has scope for improvement stepping up in trip for this while Makhfar was sent off favourite at Kempton last time but could only manage seventh. Steel Stockholder’s long losing run continues despite slipping further down the weights and The Excel Queen looks no nearer to opening her account.
