In depth
Verdict
Most of these need to find a bit more improvement off their current marks. Recent course and distance winners Revision and Charles Camoin are both upped in class off 5lb higher marks while Landwade Lad and Fiftyshadesfreed are 9lb and 8lb higher respectively than their earlier wins. The Steward is upped a further 2lb after going close at Wolverhampton last time and can figure but JUSTICE BELLE (NAP) makes more appeal as she was clear of the rest when placed behind Mustard in a more competitive handicap at Newmarket last moth. The Ed Walker filly gets the nod on that form.
