Verdict
It will be interesting to see if there is any market support for Sea of Faith returning from almost a year on the sidelines but stable companion AWARD SCHEME may be a better bet. She beat Black Lotus in a handicap here two runs ago and got going too late when runner-up to Alpinista in this grade at Salisbury last week. Star Terms is more than at home at this level but she is another returning from a lengthy absence and Vivionn didn’t really fire at Haydock on her reappearance, though the easy going may have been to blame. Franconia could pay a compliment to Gold Wand’s run here last time earlier on the card and the latter looks the pick of the remainder.
