Verdict
CHEVISE has been off the track since October but is difficult to oppose in this company on her return. She's been placed in six of her seven starts, winning twice at Kempton, and will not need to be at her best to take this. Welsh Inlet has been in better form of late but has a few lengths to find with the selection on today's terms and the same comment applies to Braehead, whose recent form doesn't look good enough anyway. Upark Flyer and Fantale are out of form and hard to fancy.
