Verdict
Tilsworth Charlie, Cerebus and Blackmalkin make most appeal in this fillies' handicap with the vote given to Tilsworth Charlie. This 5-year-old mare wasn't beaten far behind Regal Royale last time at Kempton and she had a poor draw that day. It was a solid effort effort and if she can reproduce it here then she will be hard to beat. Cerebus was collared close home here last time but this drop in trip should suit and she should be thereabouts at the finish. Blackmalkin was not disgraced at Kempton last time and she is relatively lightly-raced so she should be open to further progress. Dancing Duo is from a yard who have been in good form and she could go well at a price, but for the winner we will stick with Tilsworth Charlie.
