Verdict

OK KATIE is our pick with Suhailah and Chilly Filly put up as alternatives. Seb Sanders' has the mount aboard the mare and having performed with credit behind Moscow Catch in a bumper at Huntingdon last winter, we'll chance her in what is intrinsically a modest heat. Suhailah put up a career best to be fifth in a similar event at the track. She would have been closer still had she not pulled hard in the early stages. Chilly Filly is respected from the Mark Johnston camp. She is bred to be better for age though that is small comfort to those who lumped on throughout her juvenile campaign. Scandal looks modest and is beginning to appear exposed. El Bravo is eligible for handicaps so it could be highly significant that Gary Moore has elected to race here rather than try his hand off a BHA rating of 71. OK Katie gets the call.
