Verdict

DEEP BEAUTY (3) led and swamped late fresh up at big odds. Has won second up. Drawn to score here for sure. TAVERNIA (10) was a trial second last month so very forward to resume. Has won and placed in this state. Big chance here to win no matter the footing. GEMMA FLITZ (9) was a close second fresh up. She has won second up. Handles all types of footing so cannot be omitted from any of your multiples. BRANCASTER BOMBER (1) has been twice second in four runs this time in. He has won on dry and wet ground. Chance. JUSTANACE (2) has drawn a wide gate but still a place or first four chance in this field. Winning rider atop.
