      Verdict

      This looks a good opportunity for VASSARIA to get off the mark and she should take it. Her recent fifth in a better race at Doncaster is the best form on show and Michael Dods' filly should have no trouble taking care of Angel Of Hope and Spoken Words with a similar effort. The newcomer George Fenton could prove a bigger threat as he's a half-brother to seven winners, including a couple who won as juveniles. He makes more appeal than fellow debutants Shomberg and Villa Reigns.
