Verdict
Another small field goes to post for this maiden and it looks a match between Calligraphy and Duo Leoni and preference is for Calligraphy. The filly from the William Hggas yard appeared not to stay the mile trip last time when disappointing but prior to that was a good third over this trip at Doncaster and with conditions in her favour here she will be hard to beat. Duo Leoni rates the main danger she was third in a driving finish behind Akrmina and will not be far away. Top Spot and Tee Jay Kassidy need to improve on all known form to trouble the judge.
