In depth
Verdict
Recent winners Tender and Double M are two to consider her, but we will side with Ballinger Express. Andrew Balding's filly put up her best display to date when chasing home Wunderbra here last week. She was up with the pace throughout in that six furlong contest, battling with the eventual winner, so should be happy with this slight drop in trip. Tender landed a sprint on the all-weather last time, but also has solid turf form and looks the main threat to the selection. Double M makes a quick re-appearance following a victory in a much better race at Goodwood last week and looks set to take a hand in the finish again. Loch Inch is well handicapped and must also be in with a shout, but Ballinger Express is the choice on this occasion.
