Verdict

This looks quite competitive but NAJASHEE deserves a change of luck and may prevail. All going seems to come alike to Roger Fell’s grey and he may have been given too much to do against a couple of improving three-year-olds at Beverley at the start of the month. Millie The Minx and Barney Bullet both step up a grade but the latter won over course and distance last month while Lizzie Loch shouldn’t be far away again. Smart Lass has her sights lowered and Hillgrove Angel looked to be running into form when third at Catterick. Peerless Percy is a brother to a winner and a half-brother to two others and certainly bred for this trip so any market support for the three-year-old should be noted.
