Verdict

Isobar Wind disappointed when starting favourite over a mile last time having won a seller over 7f here earlier but an apprentice takes 7lb off his back today. DIVINE CONNECTION is preferred over today’s distance having been beaten less than a length when third at Kempton last month - she gets the nod dropping down in class. Xquisite was still beaten a long way when placed in selling company at Lingfield and Nikolayeva is preferred while the Irish raider Depardie has failed to threaten in handicaps but is worth a second glace at this level.
