Verdict
Cosa Sara beat Ayr Empress when scoring over track and trip last month and went close again at Ayr recently but FIRE IN THE RAIN has plummeted down the weights since this time last year and was beaten only a neck at Beverley in a first-time visor last week. The headgear remains in place and she can open her account off her current mark. Time To Rumble has been in good form over 7f while Chinese Spirit looks best of the rest.
