Verdict
Apply Dapply can follow up at the expense of Miss Brush and Spirit of Arosa, with Divine White noted as well. Apply Dapply quickly got the hang of things on her reappearance at Pontefract a month ago, coming with a sustained run to edge out Sunderland Echo on heavy ground. The latter has since franked the form, and although conditions are much faster here, that will not be a problem to Hugh Morrison's filly who does not look badly treated for her handicap debut. Miss Brush has by all accounts been working well at home but might just need the run, while Spirit of Arosa has topweight to overcome on her handicap bow but ran well enough on her Kempton return to be considered. Divine White will come on for her return but is not as strongly fancied as Apply Dapply who could be open to tons of improvement.
