Verdict
KHELEY at least comes here in decent form and is selected to win again; Itsher and Forever's Girl make it to the shortlist. Mark Brisbourne's filly gained the first win of her career last week when holding on well to beat Weet In Nerja at the track. Whilst that form will not set the world alight, she at least has the confidence boost of that first win under her belt and could progress from here. Forever's Girl is closely linked with the selection on their run behind Tillers Satisfied in December. She is now 3lbs worse off at the weights today and is taken on accordingly. Royal Mischief looks like the sort of horse who could pop up at a price and showed more last time, Downstream makes her handicap debut off a lowly mark of 54 but still needs to improve, whilst Mean Mr Mustard steps back up to six furlongs today having plugged on over the minimum trip last time. Itsher represents a yard that do well when the money is down so an obvious market watching brief is inevitable, however it is Kheley who is taken to win again.
