In depth
Verdict
Celtic Empress is upped 3lb for winning at Hamilton and Hala Joud has been raised the same amount after scoring over 7f on the all-weather. Lead Story has been thereabouts over the latter trip lately but Miss Roulette was a disappointing favourite at Hamilton last time. Deep Sigh ran well at Leicester on her handicap bow but maiden winner DAWNDIVA ran well again under a penalty at Goodwood last month and Brian Meehan’s filly is taken to show further progress now handicapping.
