Verdict

LIFE ON EARTH improved for the step up to 1m1f when runner-up here last time and should be thereabouts at the finish over this longer trip on her handicap debut. Valyrian is another likely to improve for the extra distance but has to be forgiven a poor effort at Leicester last time while Trouble And Strife could also go well on her reappearance. Zarrar won over 1m4f on the Polytrack here last month and appeared not to stay 1m6f last time while Mail Order still has something to prove over today’s trip and Sixties Secret is upped in class.
