Winner of an 18 runner handicap over this trip at York (good-to-soft) in September. Fair fourth over 1m at Newmarket (good-to-soft) on final start of 2017 and worth a check in the market on seasonal debut.

Forecasts

Dark Intention (5/2), Lady In Question (11/4), Toy Theatre (3/1), Made Of Honour (3/1), Fashion Theory (7/1), Angel's Acclaim (15/2), Yeah Baby Yeah (11/1)

LADY IN QUESTION ran well here on her final outing of last year and she can make a winning reappearance in this Fillies handicap. The selection is rated 6lb higher than for her latest victory but with likely chief rivals Made Of Honour and Yeah Baby Yeah both showing their best form on artificial surfaces Richard Fahey's charge is taken to get her season off the perfect start in this.
