    Verdict

    Rescue Me can land the nightcap, a fillies' handicap, and is selected ahead of Bikini and Delta Diva. The selection came from last to grab second here in a similar event earlier in the month. Expect her to be at the rear early on here too, as she was when winning over course and distance last month. She's from the Hannon stable, and he won this contest last year, coincidentally with a favourite from the same stall 7. Henry Candy's Bikini, also a beaten favourite last time out, has been second in her last couple of runs, including in a better contest at Bath. She's giving weight away to Rescue Me, but like most has it in hand from Delta Diva. It's only her 3rd career run; she won on debut but was only 4th in a similar fillies' race at Leicester last month. Run For Ede's is worthy of note, being a course and distance winner last month. But the most likely winner we think is Rescue Me.
