J: Lewis Edmunds

T: Derek Shaw

Had dropped a long way in the weights prior to a revival over C&D three weeks ago; overcame a wide draw when following up in a 0-55 here 16 days ago; can't discount in current form but another 5lb rise against stronger opposition could find him out; stable run two here.

All four wins have come over 5f here and it was at that distance that she went close to springing a shock here last month; failed to back it up two weeks ago and she has been unplaced in all eight 6f runs.
