In depth
Verdict
It was heavy going when Miss Mulligan won at Windsor 11 days ago. She won’t have the same conditions here and also carries a penalty. El Picador, just denied at Hamilton last time, has been very consistent this year but has had no help from the handicapper as a consequence. Jamil won over further at Catterick and is 5lb higher while Wilfy has yet to race beyond a mile. POLYPHONY returns to the scene of her victory in August and had also run well at the track on her reappearance. She can be forgiven her latest run on Tapeta and gets the nod.
