Verdict
This looks something of a lottery with a speculative vote going to HOLY CHALICE. She paid for failing to settle over a mile here when floundering in the closing stages but gets another over this shorter trip. Harswell Princess finished runner-up at Southwell last week and Blazer Two finished ahead of Paloise at the same track while Spartakos, Galeophobia and Don't Tell Dj are others to consider.
