      Verdict

      Heavenly Promise has won her last three, all on soft going. But she has a penalty to carry here and is making a relatively quick reappearance so might be worth taking on with the equally-consistent SHENEEDEDTHERUN (NAP), who has quickly settled into new surroundings and was a relatively cosy winner at Newcastle 11 days ago. Nautical Twilight overcame a slipping saddle to make a winning return to handicaps here recently and adds to the interest.
