In depth
Verdict
Teodora Adivina probably found the ground softer than ideal when second here last time and Henry Cecil's three-year-old looks well worth another chance off just a 2lb higher mark today, getting the vote ahead of King of Rhythm and Keisha Kayleigh. The last mentioned was good value for her win here last month, a 4lb rise for which seems perfectly fair and she has to be respected. The Mark Tompkins-trained Four Miracles has been running respectably well of late and should again be thereabouts, while Violent Velocity could probably do with some help from the handicapper. Trouble Mountain has a bit to find with Keisha Kayleigh on running last time and of more interest may be recent Ayr winner King of Rhythm, who has only gone up 4lbs for that success and there could be more to come. Teodora Adivina has plenty going for her though and Henry Cecil's filly gets the vote.
