Verdict

Florida Filly scored over track and trip recently but has a few pounds to find with both Montelusa and Miss Brazen on these terms. The former drops back down in trip after placing at Ripon while the latter’s earlier success at Redcar came over a longer trip. MERESIDE DIVA travelled up to Musselburgh for her debut and looked all at sea before finishing strongly in the final furlong. The race was over by then but she’ll know more today and can confirm running with Artemis Flyer.
