In depth
Verdict
Morag looks the one to beat here with Iron Temptress and Abrogate the best of the rest. Morag looked an improving sort when she won at Thirsk last month and a reproduction of that effort should be good enough to take this modest contest. Kings Rock was back in the field that day behind the selection but ran with credit at Southwell yesterday to give the form a further boost. George Duffield takes over in the plate from Graham Gibbons and this Ian Wood charge should be too good for her rivals. Iron Temptress is worthy of consideration if she can reproduce her effort at Hamilton back in June, but she was a disappointment last time at Catterick and that run will have to be forgiven. Abrogate is another that could go well after a decent performance at Thirsk last time, but we are happy to side with Morag who looks to on the upgrade and could be worth following.
