Verdict

Delicate Kiss never threatened at Kempton last time having won a fillies' only contest over track and trip earlier with I'm Available back in sixth. The latter subsequently won in a lower grade at Kempton a fortnight ago and Buckingham went close again at the same fixture on his latest start. Hover drops back down in trip having scored over 1m2f at Goodwood back in June while Markazi looks no nearer winning despite a slide down the weights. But the betting suggested CORAZON ESPINADO was expected to take advantage off his current mark when sent off favourite at Kempton last time. He faded away in the closing stages on that occasion but gets another chance having won off a 7lb higher mark here early in the year.
