Verdict

Richard Hannon's Jollywood had to work hard when getting up late on in the race to complete a quick double at Bath earlier this month but this is tougher and she may have to settle for minor honours behind SHOSHONI WIND, who gets the vote ahead of Methayel. Clive Brittain's filly made a promising debut when chasing home Goodwood Treasure at Goodwood earlier this month and she should improve for that outing so cannot be discounted. Luca Cumani's Khor Sheed ran well enough first time up at Haydock on softish ground and should perform better on this surface, while Gay Kelleway's Primo Lady arguably has the best form in the race but she does have a penalty to carry for her win at York last month and that may anchor her. Tim Easterby's Imperialistic Diva had to work her maiden at York last month and a safer option looks to be Kevin Ryan's Shoshoni Wind, who won with any amount in hand when landing a maiden auction event at Newcastle earlier this month and she can win again.
