Verdict
Carlton Scroop, Sasetti and Lady Georgette are three against the field in this tight handicap and the vote is given to Carlton Scroop. The selection was a fair second behind Dance A Daydream last time out, the step up in trip should suit and off the same mark she will be hard to beat. Sasetti rates the main danger as she has shown plenty in three maidens to suggest she can win a race of this nature and off a fair mark she should be noted in the market. Lady Georgette has dropped to a handy mark but has yet to prove she stays this far so can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Park Lane Princess was third in a seller behind Mighty Dancer last time and is another with place claims but her overall profile leaves her with plenty to find and for the winner we return to Carlton Scroop.
