Verdict
Gin Twist comes out best at the weights and arrives in fine fettle having won twice over the minimum trip at Wolverhampton this year. However, she'll be a short enough price for a filly that has failed in three previous starts over today's distance and WATERLOO DOCK may take advantage if she comes up short. The latter landed a handicap over C&D in February and was taking on much higher rated rivals when fourth in a seller here a week ago. Pharoh Jake and Toms River Tess have little or no chance on today's terms and the three-year-old Just Me'Lady has shown nothing so far.
