Verdict

All of Magical Speedfit's victories have come 5f and 6f and he struggles to stay this far. Greyfriarchorista has shown nothing on Turf since winning at Kempton in March while Amethyst Dawn's good run came to an abrupt end at Wolverhampton last time. FRED WILLETTS bounced back to form at Chepstow and has won off much higher marks in the past. David Evans' charge is probably the one to beat in this unless the accomplished Serena Brotherton can persuade Ghostwing, only a couple of pounds higher than for his win at Brighton last summer, to put his best foot forward.
