Verdict

SKALLYWAG BAY has now won three of her four starts on the all-weather having scored at Lingfield a fortnight ago. Blind Beggar won over today’s trip at Thirsk before upped in class at Ascot while Woolhampton will find this easier than her recent tasks on the Turf. Regal Envoy, Almaty Star and Song For Whoever all drop back down in distance with a shout.
