      Verdict

      Lady Barastar finished second at Yarmouth last time, but today's rival HYGROVE WELSHLADY was only a length behind in fourth and re-opposes on better terms. John Hills' filly is still learning her trade, but will have come on for her first experience in a handicap and won't have to find much improvement to land this. Come On The Irons may prove her biggest obstacle as he went close again in an amateurs' race here on Wednesday, but Nottingham winner Entrance has a bit to prove over today's longer trip and Pizzetti ran a shocker on his debut on the turf in May.
