In depth
Verdict
Mount Wellington has only run six times this year so shouldn’t lack race fitness but a straight 7f on Turf may not be ideal. Lady Dauphin goes well fresh so is a possibility while Casina Di Notte is one of only two previous course winners in the line-up. Golden Force is tried in a visor but we’ll take the very lightly-raced NARAK to continue where she left off in the autumn as she clearly loves to hear her hooves rattle.
