Got off the mark when winning at this venue (9.5f) in February off 3lb lower for today's jockey Donagh Murphy; pulled too hard to give her any chance at Newcastle (1m2f) last month and she will need to settle to get this extra distance.

Dual C&D winner; has slipped to 6lb below his last winning mark (1m4f, Lingfield) and wasn't beaten far when having the run of the race under Rose Dawes at Wolverhampton (1m4f; third of seven, 7-2) last week; foolish to discount.
