9/1

Lightly-raced filly who faces a difficult task on such unfavourable terms against two in-form rivals. However, she won't be at all troubled by the good to soft ground; beaten 4L (fourth) by Makanah in a Class 3 Musselburgh handicap latest.

Forecasts

Final Venture (10/11), Ornate (6/5), Fairy Falcon (9/1)

Ornate showed his rivals a clean pair of heels, and then stayed on determinedly when springing a major 33/1 surprise in the Epsom Dash on Derby Day. Alongside his sole realistic rival FINAL VENTURE, he has respectable historic Beverley form in the book. However, the edge should just about rest with the Paul Midgley-trained runner who has 2lb in hand on official BHA handicap ratings.
