Verdict
Though Karannelle is 6lb better off than when almost five lengths behind ISABELLA BEE (NAP) at Newton Abbot last month, Fergal O’Brien’s lightly-raced mare improved again to win here last week and she can confirm the form and complete a double. Addosh has placed the last twice and is 5lb lower than her last winning mark and Pop The Champagne has a good strike-rate over timber but Ip Up hasn’t run since February and is having a first outing for a new yard while On Cloud Nine has been well beaten in both starts in handicaps.
