Racing Post verdict
Third-partyFanciulla Del West produced her best performance on her handicap debut at Redcar, beaten just a length over this 10f trip and still looking fairly treated despite a 3lb rise; her consistent record and the manner in which she moves suggest another step forward remains in her. Ablon arrives on the back of a narrow Kempton success but must prove she can handle the extra 3f in trip, while Home Hero is worth a look with first-time cheekpieces after a disappointing run at Chester. Fanciulla Del West is the selection.
