Verdict
Recall The Show was no match for the odds-on favourite when runner-up at Lingfield. He finished just ahead of third-placed SKY STORM but that was the latter’s first outing of the year and, with improvement likely, Hughie Morrison’s filly is taken to turn the tables and come out best. The remainder have yet to threaten though Amniarix could finish closer today and Show Me A Sunset is fitted with a hood. Portia's Pearl is possibly best of the rest.
