Verdict

Siberian Belle has been raised 4lb for winning at Yarmouth but Laura Barry again takes off 7lb and Richard Fahey's filly must have every chance of doubling her tally getting 16lb from Brighton and Southwell winner Community, who will again be partnered by Leonna Mayor. Alshazah and Belle Park are other recent winners but the form of the former's victory at Salisbury looks dubious and the latter would prefer a longer trip. We're inclined to take a chance on ALFIE JOE who has only had five starts and appears to be improving. Last month's C&D third behind Tanforan was a decent effort in the context of this contest and he can race off the same mark today.
