Verdict

Srinagar Girl was sent off odds-on in a similar contest at Wolverhampton last time but made a mess of things and is hard to trust. It could pay to take her on with BOWSTAR, a close-up third at Kempton last week and open to further progress. Blank Czech has been well beaten despite his recent placed efforts. He's had plenty of chances but Desert Berry showed improvement last time and may be ready to take another step forward along with Dusty Red, fourth over a longer trip here during the summer.
