Verdict

DELIGHTFULLY as every chance of landing back to back victories here but won't have it easy against King's Maiden and Gallileo Figaro. A course and distance winner last time the selection for Len Lungo had a wind operation in the summer and it clearly had the desired affect when she scored with plenty in hand. Granted that was a poor race and she's up against better opposition this time but she's running off the same mark as she did on her latest and she obviously likes the track. The performance of Just Posh earlier in the day will tell us more about the form as he was 11 lengths back from the selection on her last outing but even without that her claims are strong. King's Maiden is entitled to improve again from her latest run where she was successful in breaking her maiden over a longer trip at Wetherby. The cut in the ground shouldn't be a problem however she will have to concede weight all round but with improvement likely that could be negated. Gallileo Figaro was a little disappointing last time after failing to place in similar company over a longer trip at Uttoexeter. No real excuses for that run as she should have been plenty fit enough with some good runs on the flat. Her record shows she is capable of winning and she is off a fair mark. Gunadoir could have a chance at the minor prizes if improvement can be found from her seasonal reappearance but the verdict goes the way of Delightfully.
