Verdict
Tuesday's Folkestone scorer Shaunas Vision was previously value for considerably more than her half-length winning margin over this trip at Lingfield and is taken to complete a quick hat trick at the main expense of Polish Power and Dovedon Hero. The last mentioned disappointed behind the selection at Lingfield and is probably better than he showed that day but is hard to back with any confidence on that evidence. John Quinn's Irish raider Will He Rock is something of an unknown quantity on this surface but would be of interest if the market spoke in his favour. Rio De Janeiro may bounce having been turned out quickly following a recent return from a long absence. Clive Brittain's horses are in good form at present but his representative Santando has disappointed in two starts this term so may be best watched and of more interest may be Polish Power. Stan Moore's six-year-old has won his last two starts and clearly warrants respect but Shaunas Vision has an obvious chance and is preferred.
