Verdict
Those at the top of the handicap have been running on the all-weather but RAWDAA was impressive at Newmarket before turned over at short odds in a three-runner novice stakes at Wolverhampton. That latter race turned into a sprint and Sir Michael Stoute’s filly should be better suited by a stronger pace here. Lush Life is two from two but this looks a tall order off top weight. Electric Landlady would have each-way claims, however, and Hunni is rarely far away and will handle any give in the ground. Golden Iris is another who has been knocking on the door and Miss Mumtaz beat a subsequent winner at Carlisle last month. Daybreak might improve for the fitting of blinkers.
