Verdict

CARBONARA (4) is unlucky to still be a maiden finishing runner-up at her past three outings and strikes a very winnable contest here. Has placed two from two around this circuit and should be going very close against this line-up. YEAH BUDDY (3) has hit the frame in all three starts to date with Tilley being in the irons on all three occasions. Ready to break through. YOUMEANDDUPRE (9) will be ready to peak now fourth-up, draws the inside marble and gets 7lbs off with the claim. Ticks a few boxes. SAN GIMIGNANO (11) has been thereabouts in all three starts this preparation and may earn some minor money from the favourable draw. KAYAKO (13) is facing the starter for the first time but has shown ability at the trials and any market support must be noted.
