Verdict
The may come down to a head-to-head between CODICIL and Noble Manners , and the first-named just edges preference to emerge as as the most determined on this occasion. The filly has responded kindly to every question asked so far and will be very has to get past if she copes with the extra yardage here. Ferik also appeals on pedigree and is a worthy alternative.
