Verdict

Lost Highway started favourite for his handicap debut at Wolverhampton but could only manage third and Joe Fanning prefers stablemate PARTY LINE here. Having been quite highly tried in her first season, she was only beaten a head by the race-fit Cape Safari over this trip at Leicester and will strip fitter here. Despite a 3lb higher mark, Mark Johnston's filly looks the one to beat today. Palmyra won over a mile at Lingfield in February and should stay this longer trip while Neil's Pride has a middle-distance pedigree and was doing her best work at the finish over 1m2f at Nottingham last month. Dilizan could also appreciate the longer trip and has place claims.
