Verdict

IVY AVENUE has contracted an acute dose of seconditis but she’s got a decent apprentice aboard tonight and he may just be capable of getting the mare’s head in front for once. Out Of Sight has won both races on Turf when soft has been in the going description so his claims in this affair appear particularly strong. Lethal Touch ran a credible race at Newmarket last month while Enzos Angel and Miss Harmony will be tried in cheekpieces for the first time. Beryl Burton has been given a layoff since disappointing at Bath and the market will guide.
