In depth
Verdict
Jamaican Jill opened her account with a victory over 1m4f at Lingfield when dropped down into this grade. But QUEEN CONSTANTINE lost all chance at the start here last time when the blind came off late leaving her detached from the field. She won a higher grade contest over course and distance before that with Voi back in sixth and William Jarvis’ filly gets another chance in this. Margie's Choice posted a better effort here last time and is preferred to Oblate and Elegant Love of the remainder.
