Verdict

DRACO PULCHRAC (NAP) won this last year then completed a double over 1m4f a week later and is just 4lb higher - she can go in again. Nevada Brave was always prominent and kept on when placed over 1m2f here last month while the lightly-raced maiden Lucky Question has been staying on over shorter on Turf and has to be of interest down in the basement. Lilac Lady has a very similar profile while Taxing is gradually getting the hang of the job and was going on nicely at Down Royal.
