Verdict

Kanonkop and Marie De Laufon wouldn't be far away on their best form in this finale but both return from an absence, as does Midnight Fun. Daraz Rose was third at Ffos Las last month but her best form is on a softer surface. Petit Fleur warrants respect on recent seconds at Plumpton and Bangor but LITTLE CARMELA is fancied to reverse running at the former track with Julian Smith's mare on 4lb better terms as she produced a better effort when runner-up to Veiled at Warwick next time and the winner went on to frank the form at Cheltenham.
