Verdict
Plenty of in-form entries here and one of them, SPRAY TAN, is taken to follow up her victory over 5f at Bath which was gained after a very long break. Connections will be happy with a 3lb rise and she can see off the attentions of recent winners Glossy Posse and Barbs Princess, who run with penalties. The former scored over 7f here last time but was always prominent and shouldn't be bothered by the drop in trip while the latter looked a nice prospect when making all at Goodwood and will take some pegging back. Princess Cammie won a claimer here last month and this is tougher but Front Page News is entitled to respect as she wasn't beaten far at Newmarket despite being impeded at a crucial stage.
