Verdict
To The Limit is still 4lb higher than his last winning mark and looks held by GIPSY LEE ROSE on collateral form. Nick Alexander’s mare won over course and distance in April, when Asking For Answers was tailed off, and made a very satisfactory reappearance at Ayr in a better race than this. Kildrum was also a winner here in the spring but is effectively 6lb higher now as Emma Smith-Chaston can only claim 3lb in this. Aazza, unexposed over fences, will appreciate this step up in trip.
