Verdict

Chosen Character went close in soft ground on his reappearance but never figured in better company at Haydock last time. Stosur hasn’t won on Turf since 2015 but has placed on her last four outings now while Ravenhoe’s recent third at Carlisle came in an amateurs’ race. Ede's The Mover and ZARIA have both slid down the weights but the latter has the best recent form with a third at Chepstow last week and Richard Price’s mare gets the vote racing off the same mark today.
