Verdict

Buniann scored over track and trip last time but Queen Of Kalahari was only beaten a head in third. Ginger Jam and Victory Angel are capable at this level though do most of their winning on the Turf while Ballyare has been thereabouts in lower grade sprints recently. GLORIOUS RIO ran into trouble at Pontefract last time but has won three times over course and distance, including his penultimate start, and Stella Barclay’s charge gets another chance back at this venue.
