Verdict

Daring Indian showed a bit more last time and is back on a winning mark and Antigua Sunrise may do better dropped in class. But Nolecce remains out of sorts and Queen's Estate is incapable of running the same race twice so the vote goes to SKY HIGH DIVER. She's been off the track since December but followed up a win at Newcastle with a hat-trick on the Fibresand at Southwell. Her latest 6lb rise is offset by Gary Whillans' 5lb claim and she should go close if anywhere near her best.
