Verdict
RIVAS RHAPSODY remains unbeaten having won on her handicap debut over 6f here last month. Her narrow margin victory may be better form than it looks on paper as she was left with plenty of ground to make up in the closing stages and Ian Wood's filly can follow-up. Dangers abound, however, as recent Lingfield winner Forks should go well again and Chookie Avon arrives in fine form. There was little between Tislaam and Sermons Mount over C&D last time when they finished second and third respectively, but Mishriff looks too high in the weights now.
