Sweetest Revenge returned to winning ways last time and can go in again this evening at the expense of Salon Prive and Majik. Mark Usher's four-year-old gained her second win of the season when beating Elvina on the all-weather at Lingfield a couple of weeks ago. Her previous success was on the turf at Bath and with similar conditions this evening she should be capable of going close. Majik is a much better horse on the all-weather and so does appear to be well treated here. He needs to step up on his previous turf effort but could go well at a nice each-way price. However the main threat to the selection may come from Salon Prive, a duel all-weather winner, who put up a decent performance last time in a very competitive race at Warwick. Of the remainder Fair Compton is likely to spring up at a big price sooner or later and may be worth a small saver, however we return to Sweetest Revenge as our idea of the winner.
