Verdict

Bintknight took a step forward from her debut fifth to strike at Lingfield in May and needs to be considered on her handicap bow. Similar comments apply to Be Patient, who struck over a mile at Newcastle in November, but the one who appeals most is the hat-trick seeking REDBUD SIXTEEN. The daughter of Galiway won by six lengths at Newbury recently and a 6lb rise might underestimate that level of authority she showed that day.

Top Tip: Redbud Sixteen (5)
Watch out for: Bintknight (9)

This can go the progressive filly REDBUD SIXTEEN, who was winning for the second time in ten days at Newbury last time, scoring with plenty in hand, and she looks more than capable of defying a further 6lb rise. Handicap newcomer Bintknight was off the mark at Lingfield last time and looks to have more to offer with her opening mark of 76 looking fair enough. Serenity Blue is well handicapped on the pick of his form and the new cheekpieces might help him recapture form.
