Verdict
This is a very tricky finale and we will just give the vote to Amanda's Lad, Party Princess and Magic Amour are two others with strong claims. The selection was a shade disappointing over the seven furlong trip here last time, fading into sixth place behind The Job. However she ran out an impressive victor over this trip the time before and she can regain the winning thread today. Party Princess went off the boil after winning at Nottingham in August, but ran a promising race at Wolverhampton time out. With more improvement expected she should be involved in the finish. Magic Amour is one of the more consistent performers in the line up. He wasn't disgraced behind Far Note over course and distance last time and has to be considered for each-way purposes. Desertina and Pragmatica can also be given a chance on the pick of their form, but on this occasion we will side Amanda's Lad
