Verdict
Giveaway Glance is starting to slip down the ratings and is no forlorn hope after a return to hurdling here last month which yielded some promise. Daytime Ahead will have benefited from last month’s run at Newton Abbot and She's Gina, already a winner twice this year, could be open to further improvement. SECRET DOOR (NAP) was pulled up over a trip too far on her return to action but will strip fitter here. She’s now only a pound higher than when winning over this distance at Haydock last year and Aine O’Connor’s claim is a plus. Shambra should reverse Stratford running with Solstalla on the revised terms while Waiheke could also figure if fully wound-up. Kentford Heiress has been on the go for a while and looked ready for a rest last time at Warwick.
