Verdict

Eighteen runners are due to go to post but there's plenty of dead wood amongst them and this can go the way of Craughwell Suas. The selection has had just the one start for her shrewd yard and showed enough in finishing fifth at Towcester to think that a race of this nature can come her way. She was just behind Pyschic Star there but is entitled to come on for the run and her Irish form suggests that she may be better suited by this softer ground. Figurita may improve now handicapping but has her share of weight whilst this looks tougher than the seller Rosie's Glory won at Cartmel. She's Humble has reasonable prospects of reaching the frame whilst support for Colinette and Toccata would bring them into the equation but Craughwell Suas makes much more appeal to our eye.
