Verdict
Pat Eddery makes a rare visit to Dunstall Park in search of the winner that will give the Irishman his 28th ton in the last 29 years in the saddle. The 11-times former champion appears to have a strong book of rides including Carols Choice who hass plenty in her favour. The daughter of Emarati has put up some creditable performances in defeat of late including placed efforts on her last two starts over course and distance. The five-year-old remains fairly treated and should go well once again. Tigress had Off Hire (now 1lb better off) beaten a neck in third when successful here earlier in the month. James Unett's filly was badly hampered on her next start and is capable of going close but Double Brew, who was runner-up in a seller last time, will find this tougher and would appreciate a longer trip while Mandy's Collection remains a maiden but could reach a place in her current form.
