Verdict

KRISTAL HART won over track and trip in November and went close again back here earlier this month. She looks to have an easier task in this and is preferred to another course and distance winner in Goodwood Moonlight, who won a Class 7 event before finishing last at Wolverhampton. Anjuna Beach has been thereabouts of late but a 4lb rise for his latest placed effort fails to help his cause while Understory's losing run stretches back to 2013 now. Queen Zain is lightly-raced and may improve for today's longer trip.
