Verdict
Allformary was sent off favourite on her comeback run at Wincanton but never threatened to take a hand in the finish. She can do better here, however, while there are possibilities about Hereford runner-up The Lemonpie and Lawgiver, though this trip looks on the sharp side for the latter. Saqil is tried in a visor after being pulled up in his last two starts but the vote goes to TALK OF SAAFEND, who has won on the level at Musselburgh since scoring over 2m3f here last month. She's at the top of her game which is more than can be said about the majority of her rivals.
