J: Kevin Stott

T: Katie Scott

She was 28-1 and contesting just her second handicap when scoring at Ayr (6f, good to firm) five weeks ago; fair effort under a penalty over that C&D one week later but she lacked the pace to land a blow when dropped to 5f last time; also squeezed out at the start that day so interesting to see how she fares at the trip this time.
