      Verdict

      Confidentiality is on a roll and whilst she has weight-a-plenty, she is fancied to win again; Arctic Desert looks the main danger. Michael Wigham's progressive three-year-old has now recorded five straight wins and still looks to be ahead of the handicapper. This is quickly developing into her favourite course and assuming there is a decent-enough gallop, she can win again. Corrib has claims although hewas below-par when last seen, whilst Casablanca Minx should appreciate the drop in trip. Arctic Desert has been in good form of late but despite a pull in the weights, he will need to pull a rabbit out of the hat to conquer the selection. Stravita needs a check in the betting as a course and distance winner, however Confidentiality looks hard to oppose.
