Racing Post verdict

Third-party

Capichera went close on her handicap debut at Nottingham, going down by only 3 lengths off a mark of 80, and that level of form makes her the standout back in novice company here. Take A View is the main danger — her debut effort has since been endorsed at a higher level and she drops to a mile in a first-time tongue-tie — while Carnival Of Light showed enough promise on her initial start to merit attention. Capichera is the selection.

Racing Post pick: Capichera
