Verdict
Peace Prevails landed a Class 6 handicap here last month but failed in this grade when well supported on a return visit. ALLEGIANT, who won over a mile here in September, has been racing in better company this summer and, though up 4lb for a short-head defeat here last time, looks ready to score again. Ashazuri gained her third victory of the season here a couple of weeks ago and connections won't be unhappy with a 3lb rise and she should again take care of runner-up Jawshan on similar terms. Sigrid Nansen completed a hat-trick of Class 6 handicap victories then only just failed to make it four on the trot in this grade at Newmarket, though she's up 6lb. Singing The Blues could hardly be more consistent though all of his four victories have come in a lower grade.
