In depth
Verdict
Saturn 'n Silk is consistent but not really improving and could be vulnerable again facing a more progressive filly in BELLATRIXSA (NAP), who showed the benefit of her hurdling debut in Listed company at Aintree to win going away at Huntingdon. Miss Tara Moss also carries a penalty after getting off the mark at Sedgefield and may struggle to give 7lb to the selection. Who Told You ran poorly at Wincanton last time and her third at Exeter may have been a fluke.
