    Verdict

    Mark Johnston has really found the key to his runners of late and can land another prize with LADY JANE DIGBY. Queen Martha and Laughter are others to bear in mind. Laughter has only raced three times and, as she represents a top yard, the daughter of Sadler's Wells is very much one to consider. On a cautionary note: she showed little on her reappearance and, despite this being a drop in class; Sir Michael Stoute's filly has a bit to prove. Queen Martha has won her last two starts in good style and is obviously thriving on being kept busy. Her pedigree suggests 10 furlongs won't be a problem and a bold effort cannot be ruled out. However, Lady Jane Digby is as tough as they come and, having gone close on numerous occasions already this season, this half-sister to Gateman has plenty in her favour as she bids to gain some compensation today.
