In depth

Verdict

Arriva La Diva and Blown It are holding their form well and bold bids are expected from both, but Sharp Shoes has a bit to find with the latter on running at Ayr earlier this month. Sharp Bullet looks in need of some respite from the handicapper and it was heavy ground when Sea Salt scored at Newcastle last time. WICKED WILMA landed a hat-trick last month and is dropped in class after a fifth at Musselburgh last week. She looks capable of getting her head back in front in this company.
