Verdict

There are a few trail-blazers in this but they will all have to go some to head off ELECTRIC LADYLAND, who was withdrawn from a race earlier this week on account of the ground but is being allowed to take her chance in this. Wonderwork also goes from the front and is a threat while Sampers Seven had Queen's Order behind when successful over course and distance on only her second run on Turf. Live In The Moment was also successful over track and trip latest but steps up two grade for this. Meraas has won three times this year but has raced exclusively over 6f.
