Verdict
Arctic Sofia has improved markedly over hurdles and makes her handicap debut on what could prove to be a very lenient mark. Park Row comfortably beat Chaparral Dream over the extended 1m2f track here last week and can confirm the form despite an 8lb rise though LADY DE VESCI (NAP) can take this for Michael Halford. She has improved with every run recently and was going on strongly over the trip at Naas earlier this month. Los Alamos, a winning bumper, hasn't been in the best of form but can hardly go much lower in the ratings and his stable continue in outstanding form.
