Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Edward Greatrex| T: K R Burke| OR: 57

10/3

Staying on third over 1m2f at Redcar (good-to-firm) last time out. Shapes as if this step up in trip will suit and one to note off a 2lb higher mark.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: H Crouch| T: Miss S West| OR: 48

Forecasts

Dame Nellie (5/2), Stay In The Light (10/3), The Naughty Step (6/1), Lyford (15/2), Sir Fred (8/1), Sixties Secret (10/1), Makin It (10/1), Carolyn's Voice (14/1), Tagus (33/1), Kheleyf's Girl (50/1)

STAY IN THE LIGHT recorded a career best effort last time out and she can record a first victory with this step up in trip likely to suit here. Dame Nellie has placed on both starts since returning from a break and she can do likewise on her return to this surface while third place can go the way of Sixties Secret who is bred to appreciate this step up in distance and has run well off higher marks in the past.
