Verdict
Shaymay finished third in one of these events over 6f at Kempton recently and the runner-up has already boosted the form by winning. But PURE PURFECTION was having her first outing since October when beaten less than a length in a handicap over track and trip a couple of days ago and she gets the vote at this lowly level. Haraz posted a better effort here attempting to end a long losing run while Eastern Star looks best of the rest.
