Formscan By Tom Weekes - VARSHINI is a previous course-and-distance winner who has good recent form. A heavy-ground victor at today’s venue last April, the selection showed form at Listed-level twice last October and while disappointing on reappearance last month, bounced back with a narrow defeat at the Curragh 19 days ago. That’s race’s runner-up Glory To Be scored subsequently and re-opposes today, but is now 7lb worse off with the selection. Greydreambeliever seems ground-versatile and ran well here earlier this month while Greek Flower finished narrowly behind Glory To Be recently and likes soft ground.

An extended handicap for three years old and upwards fillies only that are EBF eligible (100 = 10st)
Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
