Verdict
Kimora won this in 2015 and 2016. She didn’t run in the race last year but arrives of the back of a victory in a Ladies Open at Andoversford, though only had two rivals. ONE BIG LOVE has won three times between the flags this year. She is 0-10 under Rules but this looks a good opportunity and Lorcan Williams rides so the 10-year-old is preferred to stablemate Flights. Florella can’t be ignored but Young Cheddar is harder to fancy on recent form.
