Verdict
Arctic Flower was winning for the sixth time on Turf when landing a heavy-ground handicap at Windsor but she's 0-17 on the all-weather. Vincenzo Coccotti changed stables after winning at Chelmsford and made a decent start for his new handler when a length third behind SONNET ROSE on the same track. The latter couldn't quite get past Dawaaween at Kempton a couple of weeks ago but is running really well at present and can give the weight away. Freedom And Wheat is back on the same mark as when scoring over the track and trip in December and was returning from a break when third at Southwell earlier this month so could provide the main threat.
