Verdict
Fizzy Lady will rarely get a better chance and she gets our vote here ahead of Princess Ismene and Kedross. It has to be said that the Barry Hills-trained selection has been disappointing overall but her form still stands up to close inspection in this seller and she has to go close. The best of Kedross's juvenile Turf form brings her right into the reckoning, while Princess Ismene's win in a Lingfield seller in January also catches the eye in the context of this race. Knight To Remember was noted staying on at one pace in a course and distance seller on his last outing, which rates as just about the best of the form that the rest can offer. Overall, though, we have to return to Fizzy Lady who, accordingly, gets the vote.
