In depth

Verdict

Ratoute Yutty seems to be regressing but SHANTOU SUNSET (NAP) got back on track here last month and this is her time of year. Hello Sunshine handled the step up in trip at Plumpton last week and Nora The Xplorer is interesting eased in grade given she did win a small race over 3m at Haydock last year. Maid Of The Night has won two of her last three but she is less certain to stay. Hellfire Princess looks the pick of the remainder.
