Verdict
Miss Mai Tai prevailed by only a head at Goodwood to complete a double though is only a pound higher today. But STARPROOF (NAP) returned a more convincing winner over course and distance last week, with Sparkling Spirit over four lengths back in third, and the former gets the vote to defy a penalty. Anificas Beauty was in good form at Chelmsford before a poor effort last time while Cashew also needs to put a below-par run at Carlisle behind her.
