Forecasts

Sophiesticate (11/8), Russian Virtue (11/4), Commander Hector (4/1), Ninky Nonk (11/2), Marcello Si (14/1)

Verdict

SOPHIESTICATE has benefited from the step up to 10f on her last 3 starts, bumping into only one ahead of the handicapper at Doncaster on her latest outing. She can get off the mark this time around, at the expense of Russian Virtue and Ninky Nonk.
