Verdict
Emma Littmoden is a very capable amateur and she can steer Blonde En blonde to another course and distance success at the expense of Paddywhack and Mr Stylish. The Hamas filly was victorious twice here last winter and looked to be returning to her best when finishing a close up fourth behind Arc El Ciel over the seven furlong trip here earlier this month. Most of the opposition here are out of form so it could be a good chance for her to regain the winning thread. Paddywhack has to shoulder 12 stone today but was most impressive when landing a five furlong event here two runs back, he is just as effective over this longer trip and deserves utmost respect. Mr Stylish reverts to a shorter trip after little success over seven furlongs and should go well off his low weight. However in what is a poor race Blonde En Blonde has the best credentials
