In depth
Verdict
Not much strength in depth here and with Minirina likely to need this outing, it will take little winning. Derek Shaw, who runs both Ladies Knight and recent course winner Park Star, looks to hold the key to this event. The former looked to show some improvement when tackling handicappers for the first time on her latest outing. She meets her stablemate on similar terms, having finished just behind her that day. Park Star has since gone on to win over course and distance, and a 4lbs rise seems fair enough. She did win a shade comfortably that day and is the selection. The biggest threat may come from Star Lad, who was just over three lengths behind her here, but she is weighted to finish much closer to her now.
