In depth
Verdict
Night Kiss is strong fancy to take this mile handicap, with Qualitair Wings and Labrett set to fight out the places. Richard Hannon¿s three-year-old deserves to win a race of the nature following some gallant efforts in defeat, which include a decent handicap at Ascot back in September. Qualitair Wings makes a quick return to the racecourse having made King Harson pull out all the stops at Catterick last week, and will be a big danger. Labrett must also come into the equation if getting back to anywhere near her summer form which included a runner up berth in a class c handicap at Ascot. Oases is another that could challenge for place money following an excellent fourth behind Gallery Breeze over a slightly shorter trip here earlier this month, but Night Kiss should be the one to take the winners purse.
