SURVIVORS SISTER needs to raise her game, but there's a good chance that she'll do just that now moving up in trip for this handicap debut. Gerrys Wish and Grace Faraday both found just one too good last time and are feared most in that order of preference. County Champs and Johnny Cakes are others to consider.
