Verdict

ORIENTAL LILLY comes into this on a four-timer and her style of racing has made it hard for the handicapper to assess those performances. As she has the speed to win over 5f she may be less inconvenienced by the lack of a pacemaker in this than will be the case for Born To Finish, Heaven's Guest and Firmdecisions. A bigger threat may come from Glorious Politics whose form has been a mixed bag so far, but he is closely matched with the selection on running here last time.
