Verdict

ALWAYS A DRAMA has her first start since winning at Kempton in October but she was also returning from an absence on that occasion. Charlie Hills’ filly may prove good enough to defy a penalty with doubts surrounding the opposition. Ballyquin should figure off his current mark but that was also the case when a disappointing favourite at Newcastle last time while better was expected from Minuty at Wolverhampton last week having gone close at Kempton on her earlier debut. Favori Royal made only a modest start at Southwell recently and it remains to be seen if he fares any better on this surface.
