In depth
Verdict
Fairy Alisha, Rose Red, Ovilia and the three-year-old Auld Fyffee are all likely to be popular with punters as all have managed to make the frame this season. The latter is probably the most progressive but MRS BURBIDGE pulled too hard when staring joint favourite at Worcester after winning a couple of races on the Flat in Jersey. This sharper track should see her in a better light and she is taken to recoup losses. Hope's Wishes makes some each-way appeal in a modest finale.
