Verdict
AMULETUM has finished runner-up in both starts in handicaps and gets the nod to go one better having just failed at Windsor on her latest start. Carvelas was placed at Lingfield last time and Raashdy won at Wolverhampton before running as though something was amiss back at the latter track a fortnight ago. Winning hurdler Doesyourdogbite has also won twice on the Flat in the past and isn’t badly weighted on that form while Southfields had three starts in maiden company for Godolphin in 2015 and has switched yards since.
