    Verdict

    Piccatune has no easy task under her penalty, while Playtime Blue turned in her best effort to date at Wolverhampton last time. She at least proved she handles the Fibresand. However, this looks to lie between course and distance winner Evangelist and Mark Tompkins Rowan Express. Preference is for the latter, who absolutely trotted up on her only appearance on the Fibresand at Wolverhampton. She is open to some improvement on this surface and she is taken to show her rivals a clean pair of heels.
