      Verdict

      Saratogane is impossible to oppose here; best of the rest might prove to be Back On Line. Much as it was not a great event that Saratogane won at Exeter last time, this is not a great event either and at least David Pipe's runner has winning form. The Venetia Williams-trained Back On Line did not show a lot on her debut, while Off Stage hails from a stable that is doing well with its runners and a cautionary look at the betting is suggested. Both have to be considered, though, in such a modest race. With Rashida having been beaten in a seller last time, you can see the level of race this is so, once again, we give Saratogane a solid vote.
