Verdict

ZIGGY STARSHINE made a winning start to her career at Bath before filling the runner-up spot on both subsequent outings. The manner of her latest effort at Wetherby suggested the step up to 6f would aid her cause and she can prove too strong for the opposition. Innichen got off the mark at the third time of asking at Pontefract and enters the reckoning, along with Yahaira and Koodini.

Top Tip: Ziggy Starshine (1)
Watch out for: Innichen (2)

Plenty of potential on show here with Innichen and Yahaira last-time-out winners to take seriously, but it's top weight ZIGGY STARSHINE who appeals most. Although twice beaten under a penalty after making a winning debut, she's bumped into a pair of smart types and an opening mark of 74 seems fair. At bigger odds Havana Grey Star might be worth taking note of. She was below form last time, but showed plenty on her first two outings and goes handicapping now off a mark of just 67.
