Verdict
Bell Heather hasn't won since her debut a year ago but has been taking on much stronger opposition than this. La Havrese, on the other hand, steps back up a grade after winning narrowly at Musselburgh. Bush Beauty appears to be in the handicapper's grip and Lincoln Rocks remains out of sorts but Zaria has been running well at Epsom lately and should figure. SIMPLY ME (NAP) must be worth an interest receiving weight all round as she caught the eye on her handicap debut at Windsor and has been dropped a further 2lb since.
