Verdict

Little Belter has gone close here before but is still without a win after 15 starts. Prolific on the all-weather, Roy's Legacy has only won twice on Turf though one of those wins was over track and trip. LIZZY’S DREAM recorded her only success on Turf so far over course and distance but she may double her tally today having won twice at Kempton earlier this year. Seamster has done all his winning to date on the all-weather and can race off a 12lb lower mark here as a consequence but Compton River and Mystical King have not won a race between them yet.
