Verdict
SHOWDAISY shrugged off a 6lb rise to land a double at Musselburgh a week ago. She made all on both occasions and is worth sticking with in her current form. A winner at Ayr earlier in the month, Taffetta did well to finish second at Nottingham last time having missed the break. She’s preferred to Princess Momoka, well beaten at Yarmouth on her handicap debut. Rural Celebration is getting closer as she slips down the weights and was placed at Wolverhampton last time but Ayresome Angel has yet to show any improvement for a slide down the handicap.
