Verdict

POSTWAR (3) excellent return from the long layoff with a gritty on-pace second over 4 ½f at this track in the heavy conditions. Fitter now and nicely placed to take this out. SHE'S FIRST LADY (10) covered ground in the run and far from disgraced when fourth over 4 ½f at this track two weeks ago. Adept in all conditions and stays in the mix. INZAIN BABY (2) hasn't raced since March but ended last campaign with a series of decent effort when within 4L of the winner. Looking for a good return. SENSESATIONAL STAR (9) resumes and has claims while fresh.
