Racing Post verdict
Third-partyPiazza is the clear selection in this Class 6 contest over 7f at Epsom, sitting on top of our ratings on 72, some six pounds clear of her nearest market rivals. That gap makes her stand out on figures alone in a race with plenty of moderate form on show. Madman, Eyes Front and Twilight Glow are the chief dangers, with barely a pound between that trio on our book. Confidence in the selection is medium, reflecting a race where the form all round remains workmanlike.
