In depth
Verdict
Lil Guff found one only too good at Newbury and that looks the strongest form on offer. Made In Brockley and Boadicea Belle are likely improvers and preferred to Object and Berkshire Phoenix but a chance is taken on a newcomer. Golden Warrior represents last year’s winning yard and could go well but SERENITY is a full sister to a couple of winners and a half-sister to several others so the Haggas filly gets the nod.
