      Verdict

      She's No Muppet and Pinkerton Mill both have penalties to carry for their earlier successes and may struggle to concede weight away to Hollywood, who is taken to confirm the promise of her previous runs. The selection is less stoutly bred than some of her rivals but stays the trip well enough judged by form behind Yaboya at Wincanton. Her last time out fifth behind Noland at the same venue represents solid bumper form and Victor Dartnell's filly is taken to frank it further here. Nicky Henderson's Antinomy has shown promise in both outings so far and has to be respected but a doubt remains concerning the form of the stable's horses at present so she may be best watched at present. She's No Muppet may strip fitter for her return behind Funny Times at Sandown last month and makes more appeal than the other previous winner in the field Pinkerton Mill. A market move for Jim Old's Colline de Fleurs or the Nicky Richards-trained Knockara Luck would be of interest on their debut but Hollywood has an obvious chance and gets the vote.
