Verdict
COCKNEY WREN has been fancied in all three starts but has come up short so far. However, she was beaten only a neck here on her debut and is getting plenty of weight from Ilovemints, who is penalised for an earlier success at Bangor. The remainder with experience have all been well beaten including Cadeaux's Fire but the newcomers Queens Cloak and Beat Street are both related to winners in this code.
