        Verdict

        Centoria was first past the post at Fontwell in September but lost the race in the stewards' room. Third at that track next time, she deserves a change of luck but Fire Tower showed some ability at Uttoxeter in May when finishing 17 lengths ahead of fifth Ballyhollow, though the latter was very green that day. The Queen's SIDE STEP has a Flat pedigree and may have too much speed for these. She will know what's required and preferred to the Henry Daly pair, Nordic Nymph and Tara Mist, and fellow newcomer Main Reason.
