Verdict

A tight race and it is PERFECT CLASS we tip for victory here ahead of Lovely Steps and Just The Lady. This brave filly won last time out over course and distance after pushing her way though the field and making a late surge for victory. Drawn high the three-year-old should benefit from running down the rails and she is a confident choice. Lovely Steps put in a decent effort last time out, leading with a furlong and a half to run,but she faded that day and the draw could have been kinder here. Just The Lady won on her last visit to Kempton and comes into this race in good form. Her four wins to date have been gained from the front, and she will be a danger to all if she is allowed an easy lead. Song Of Praise, Divine Force and Celtic Rebel all have a shot at victory if they can take advantage of their middle draw. Any one of the six mentioned could win it here, but Perfect Class has already proved she can win here and looks to top the bunch with her recent winning form.
