Verdict

SABRINA HALL (12) has been a beaten favourite twice at this level since winning a BM65 at Ascot Park in the spring. The drop back from 7f to 6f is a query, but she has been freshened and will be hard to hold out. Follow your money. TRADER (7) has come of age this season and made it 2 BM65 wins on the bounce here 3 weeks ago when scoring comfortably by nearly a length. He loves it here on his home track, and he is on target to complete a well-earned hat-trick. THE PRINCIE ONE (1) needed his resuming run but still managed to finish a narrowly beaten second by a short head here 3 weeks ago. She is very progressive and will be hard to beat here. DIOR SAUVAGE (13) was sixth fresh up and is not out of this. MOTIONTIME (2) hardly runs a bad race when fit.
