Verdict

Brighton winner Whitby Jet is probably improving but will do well to win this under a penalty. Zafeen's Pearl has gone well fresh in the past but this is her first start on turf, while Loyal N Trusted also returns from a lengthy break. Another For Joe didn't stay 1m2f at Chester in June and should be winning soon but those at the top of the handicap make more appeal today. Satwa Dream is edging closer to a first win but OH SO SAUCY already has five victories on her CV, including one over C&D, and her latest sixth here last month suggests she may be ready to strike again.
