        Verdict

        Rose Of Ithaca is penalised for winning a fillies’ only race at Thirsk and COBALT BLUE (NAP) can take advantage. The latter missed out by only a head at Epsom, with a subsequent winner four lengths behind, and can go one better in this. Lion Kingdom posted an improved effort at Haydock and today’s tongue-tie may bring further progress while Pavise finished a bit closer at Salisbury last time. Maid In Kentucky is preferred of the newcomers.
