Verdict

This is another good race in which Clinet is narrowly taken to score at the main expense of Island Rapture and Art Work. The selection really caught the eye when winning with plenty in hand at Wolverhampton last time when defeating Tharua. She looks to have the size and scope to progress from that, and as that was her first run for seven months she looks likely to improve for it. She has more on her plate here but is going the right way and she looks one to stay on the right side of. Island Rapture is more exposed than most of these but she is in good form and is more than capable of getting competitive in these type of events. Art Work improved for her debut effort when winning in good style at Nottingham last time beating Eccentricity. However, that was not a strong maiden and more is required today. Spring Goddess has run well in the past but has a habit of finding a couple too good and she may be best watched today. This is quite a competitive fillies' handicap and we will stick with Clinet as our idea of the winner.
