In depth
Verdict
Presence Felt’s last victory came over this track and trip but that was three years ago. Istimraar was still beaten a long way when second over fences at Newcastle but Champagne Lilly is edging closer to a first victory under Rules and her yard generally does well at this meeting. Iwasthefutureonce won at Wetherby last month but didn’t follow up at Southwell. Jane Walton produced LISSEN TO THE LADY to get up in the shadows of the post at Carlisle and can pounce late to land this off a 5lb higher mark with the return to a longer trip no problem.
