Verdict

A tricky finale to solve but the vote goes to DATA FATA SECUTUS, who ran her best race when third at Redcar 10 days ago and first-time headgear may well eke out that bit extra from Rebecca Menzies' filly. Heading up the dangers is Ellie's de Vega, who shaped as though still in good form when fourth at Ripon last month (race has already produced a couple of next-time-out winners). Northern Tempest and Powernap can fight out minor honours.

4	Ran her best race when third of 8 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good to firm) 10 days ago, though did compromise herself with a slow start. First-time visor may sharpen her up in that regard and could be worth chancing to get off the mark. 1st Pick 4 Data Fata Secutus Jockey: Kaiya Fraser Trainer: Rebecca Menzies J: Kaiya Fraser T: Rebecca Menzies	100	-	-	-	19%

7	Displayed plenty of zip in 6f handicaps in recent weeks, leading until 2f out having raced freely when fourth of 9 at Ripon (good to firm) last month. May settle better in reapplied cheekpieces and that race has already produced 2 next-time-out winners (slight drop in trip should benefit). 2nd Pick 7 Ellie's De Vega Jockey: Jamie Gormley Trainer: Noel Wilson J: Jamie Gormley T: Noel Wilson	99	-	-	-	20%

1	Settled better returned to a sprint trip and got back to the pick of his juvenile form when third of 11 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good) last week. Well drawn to attack so not discounted. 3rd Pick 1 Northern Tempest Jockey: Connor Beasley Trainer: Michael Dods J: Connor Beasley T: Michael Dods	93	-	-	-	36%
