Verdict

VEIL OF CLOUDS made a mockery of her mark when winning at Lingfield 19 days ago and looks capable of defying an 8 lb rise. Shallow returns to a C&D where twice successful and ran to the pick of her form when second at Newmarket recently so may prove next best, while Rumble Ruby would likely have won at Yarmouth had she kept straight and warrants respect back at 6f.

8	Much improved when off the mark by a wide margin in a 6f all-weather handicap at Lingfield 19 days ago. Up 8 lb for that romp but well enough bred and in the right hands to have more to come so she's well fancied to follow up. 1st Pick 8 Veil Of Clouds Jockey: Oisin Murphy Trainer: Simon & Ed Crisford J: Oisin Murphy T: Simon & Ed Crisford	100	-	-	-	29%	5/2
