        Verdict

        Heartsong beat nothing of note when landing her maiden at Folkestone last time but did it with the minimum of fuss and could figure again back in handicap company. Morocco Moon found one too good on her handicap bow at Lingfield but she's still improving and is not out of this though LEXINGTON SPIRIT makes more appeal. Richard Fahey's filly won her first two starts before finding the colts too strong in the Windsor Castle at Ascot in June and is taken to get back on track here with Laura Barry's 7lb claim making her job that much easier. The aforementioned trio look a notch above the remainder including maiden winners Ring For Baileys and First Fast Now.
