Verdict
With the Henry Daly team in such cracking form at present it may be prudent to side with Parlour Game in this tight little handicap. The mare should be able to carry her penalty for a smooth performance at Uttoxeter two days ago and will be hard to beat if she turns out again. The admirably tough Ballyvaddy can get the better of Phidari if the selection does not make the starting line up.
