Verdict

All Currencies was the surprise winner of a Worcester maiden and was sent into Listed company at Newbury where she ran better than expected. If You Say Run makes a very quick reappearance after cruising to victory at Wincanton on Boxing Day and she's only been beaten once in five career starts. Maria's Benefit has come through the ranks having won a maiden, a Class 3 handicap and completed her hat-trick in Class 2 company at Ludlow where she won comfortably. She faces a stiff task against the unbeaten four-year-old SUNSHADE, who looked one to follow when landing the odds in emphatic style at Market Rasen and just edges the vote.
