Verdict
LIV MY LIFE blew the start and ran green when fourth behind Persian Dreamer at Ascot but the penny was dropping in the closing stages and the Hannon filly will know more today. The winner’s stablemate Kalik looks a threat having found only one too good when favourite at Newbury as Matters Most and States both have something to find on that run. David Evans’ pair and the two newcomers are best watched on this occasion.
