Lightly-raced maiden. 11/1, first run since leaving Lucinda Russell when very good seventh of 13 in handicap at this course (12.1f, good) 21 days ago, meeting some trouble. Should have more to offer so she's a player.

Forecasts

Billy No Mates (11/4), Ravenscraig Castle (3/1), Crystal Guard (4/1), V Twelve (11/2), Ebony Maw (8/1), Fanaigi Linn (10/1), Krissy (12/1), Freewheelin (50/1)

KRISSY made a promising start for Jim Goldie when seventh here recently and can build on it to open her account at the chief expense of the handily-weighted Billy No Mates. Course scorer V Twelve and the Iain Jardine-trained pair Ravenscraig Castle and Crystal Guard also need factoring into this competitive handicap.
