Verdict

VERY MAJESTIC (12) was solid from the back row at Listed level at her latest appearance. Recorded back-to-back Addington placings prior. Won her lone attempt at this circuit and distance and looks well placed to find the winners' list. KRACKA LOOKA (6) is in good form with top-four finishes at her last five starts, most recently recording a third at Cromwell. Starts from a handicap this time but the hoof is on the till and this could be her chance to strike. SWITCH ON (4) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance at Cromwell. HOLLY HIGHLANDER (1) was solid last start and is much better served by this starting position.
