Verdict
HALA JOZA produced her best effort to date by some way when runner-up at Lingfield a fortnight ago and, if able to build on that here, she may well go one better at the chief expense of Woodhay Whisper, who was just over a length adrift in third on that occasion and renews rivalry on 1 lb better terms. Metamora admittedly hasn't shown much in a handful of appearances but she's one to note in the betting now handicapping off a lowly mark with a visor applied and Silvestre De Sousa booked.
