This is her grade; far from disgraced (beaten 2l) over 6f here (handicap) ten days ago; shown she can win fairly recently and warrants respect.

Verdict

The principals look evenly matched but MISTY METAL is capable of landing this. She is a winner and has won over this trip before. Time For Charity has run well previously over this C&D.
