Verdict
Very few of these arrive in any kind of form but Hard Solution is one, following up a victory at Ripon with couple of fair runs on the Tapeta at Wolverhampton. He is also part of a group of six that have won previously over course and distance but may struggle to give 7lb to SHESADABBER, who has already won twice this year and has continued to hold her own off higher marks. Arcavallo is on a long losing run but came in for significant market support at Newcastle last time and a case can also be made for Lydiate Lady.
