In depth
Verdict
Beau Mistral is up 8lb for her recent win at Chester and there's less exposed types to consider in this. Uprise is dropped back to the minimum trip in search of that elusive first win while Lexington Spirit has run a couple of shockers since winning her first two starts early last year. Ring For Baileys is holding her form well having won her maiden over C&D in March but a punt is taken on ELECTRIC QATAR, who was set a stiff task off his original handicap mark last term but has slipped down to a more realistic figure judged on his latest third at Nottingham with Bookiesindexdotnet behind.
