Verdict
CRYSTAL CAROLE showed major improvement improvement on her first start for John Best when beaten only a neck at Lingfield in March. This is less competitive and she can go one better. Valentine Mist’s recent placed efforts all came over further at Wolverhampton while Guardiola’s victory at Bath last summer came in classified company. Elzaam's Dream has yet to race over this far while Glamorous Crescent is regularly placed but rarely wins and Limelighter’s only success so far came over hurdles.
