In depth
Verdict
Brennie can come good here, with Tharua, Zeena, Trials 'n Tribs and Mostarsil others expected to figure. This is another contest that will take little winning, and as Brennie has been figuring in the finish on each of her last four starts, she deserves to gain an overdue success. The Vince Smith-trained four-year-old made a bold bid to dominate on each of her two visits to Wolverhampton in November, and on the latest occasion probably found it tough to give weight to the winner. She has obvious claims today and this time is taken to make all. The drop back in trip should help and she holds Tharua on that last run as well. The latter will be plugging on but seems to go better on a more testing fibresand surface. Zeena has had a break since October, and her stamina will have to be taken on trust, while Trials 'n Tribs barely gets this trip as well. Mostarsil has not won since June last year but has taken on far better company in his time, and will be a danger to all if recapturing his form, but we shall remain loyal to Brennie.
