      Verdict

      MAY QUEEN was tailed off on her only previous start here but she's likely to be a short price for this having beaten a useful sort in Elite Force at Wolverhampton on her reappearance, her second success on Tapeta. A 5lb higher mark is unlikely to stop Chris Wall's progressive filly. Saturation Point, Lady Lunchalot and Diletta Tommasa are all previous course and distance winners so warrant respect but none of that trio have been in sparkling form lately. Scottische isn't badly handicapped but doesn't win very often.
