Verdict
A weak looking affair to end proceedings at the Scottish track should basically concern Magic Mamma's Too, Manx Fizz and Zara Louise, with the latter taken to make the most of the weight she receives from the aforemantioned pair. Zara Louise was a beaten favourite at Nottingham last time but gave the impression that there is a race to be won. We would be more confident if she were to be tried over further than this mile, but she seems in good form and gets the vote. Manx Fizz has flattered to deceive in the past but is not badly treated either, while Magic Mamma's Too is consistent and has the assistance of Kevin Darley.
