Verdict

Among the promising types is TABITI, who is the last of three interesting runners on the card for Ralph Beckett. Tabiti won in the style of a useful prospect at Newmarket and is taken to follow up. Jewelry, who created a similarly favourable impression at Newbury, is second choice ahead of Troia who has a similar profile to the selection. Betty Clover is comparatively exposed but brings the best rating, while several others can be viewed positively.[Steve Boow]
