Verdict

A very low-grade affair for horses rated under 50. VALLEY OF FLOWERS didn't quite stay 1m6f when runner-up to Turner Girl, who runs in the previous race, at Catterick but her previous run over this trip at Thirsk may prove good enough for this. Uther Pendragon is 0-26 on artificial surfaces but very nearly made all over 1m2f at Chelmsford last week where he was headed on the line. International Law has had his last dozen starts on Tapeta at Wolverhampton and Newcastle without winning but All About Alice is better than she showed at Chester last time and gained her only victory to date over this trip on Tapeta.
