Verdict

Marginal preference is for LADY HORNBLOWER who benefited from the fitting of a visor when going in over C&D last time and remains likely capable of better over this trip having largely been campaigned at up to 1m previously. Kartini is feared most having slipped to a lenient-looking mark, while Bay Dream Believer and Tommo's Ginjaninja also need factoring into this tight-knit handicap.
