Verdict
It could pay to side with Raised The Bar here in the hope that Mark Johnston has again worked the oracle on a horse stepping up in trip. She is by Royal Academy and has plenty of stamina on her dam¿s side; so should find nine furlongs is well within her capabilities. Recent Nottingham winner Forzacurity carries 6lb extra for that performance here, but is respected just the same; and poses more of a threat than Allinjim, who was comfortably held by Forzacurity at Colwick Park.
