Verdict
INNOCENT GIRL owes her lowly mark to indifferent form earlier in her career. But she looked a reformed character when dotting up over fences at Southwell on Monday and, if fully recovered, should beat this bunch in a canter receiving weight all round. With Romann Angel declared a non-runner, Glenariff may be the one to chase her home though would ideally have preferred some rain. Neither Pretty Rose nor Diamond Lucy have been in the best of form lately.
