In depth
Verdict
Juniper Girl, the mount of Hayley Turner, is our selection in the closing Handicap with Left Hand Drive, Mae Cigan and Living On A Prayer rated the main dangers. The Michael Bell-trained filly won a Beverly-maiden last September and has not been seen since. She is potentially unexposed in handicap company and can go well here, if fit. Of the others Left hand Drive has the benefit of a run this season. He had shown little in his first three runs but kept on well for second at Southwell last time out and cannot be ruled out here. Sweet Boulangere represents a top trainer/jockey combination and should run a good race, meanwhile Mae Cigan has been running well over shorter distances and has looked as though he would appreciate this step up in trip on both occasions. Living On A Prayer was well beaten on his handicap debut but had previously won a Lingfield maiden. He could run into a place at a decent price. However, our win-only selection is Juniper Girl.
