    Verdict

    LUA DE MEL is penalised for making all over 6f at Lingfield on her debut. Both placed horses have won since so the form looks rock-solid and this shorter trip should not be a problem. Kayat looks the main threat back in novice company today after placing in handicaps unless the newcomer Grandma proves above average representing Brian Ellison’s in-form yard. Speedymining and Belle Voci have shown nothing so far
