Racing Post verdict
Third-partySelection was desperately unlucky here last time, hitting the line well only to be denied by the narrowest margin off a mark just 1lb lower than today; first-time cheekpieces could sharpen her effort further at a track she clearly handles. Dovey Moon has won twice in recent starts and is respected back at this trip, while Sir Paul Ramsey returns off a break on an appealing mark. Selection to gain the reward her recent form deserves.
