Verdict
MONDORA is weighted to reverse Lingfield form with Pop The Champagne and this more galloping track should see her in a better light. Rose Ohara finished ahead of Lunar Flight at Lingfield but the latter didn’t get the run of the race and, less exposed, could reverse placings. Maid On The Moon and Do You Think are interesting newcomers on pedigree and could also play a part.
