7/4
Has had plenty of racing but found necessary improvement to gain breakthrough in 13-runner handicap at Kempton (6/1) 42 days ago, staying on to lead close home. Just 2 lb higher now and holds strong follow-up claims.

Off the mark at Lingfield (12f) last month and acquitted herself well in defeat since, latest when third of 6 in handicap at this course (14f) 21 days ago, nearest finish. Visor back on. Likely contender.

Preference is for MUST BELIEVE, who hasn't been harshly treated for last month's Kempton victory. The consistent Cardinal Point looks the likeliest danger.
