Jo Hughes won this 12 months ago with the useful Caledonia Lady but this year's entry, All Fur Coat, doesn't look to be in the same bracket. Woodlandsway doesn't look one of Richard Hannon's best two-year-olds while Baddilini needs to step up again on her win in a Haydock nursery and New Pearl has been racing over further lately. Lady Ibrox could be interesting, however, and Faithfilly can be forgiven her run on the Polytrack last time having won a Listed contest on good to soft ground Deauville earlier. BOSTON ROCKER will be very much at home on the prevailing going having only been beaten a neck on the heavy at the Curragh last month. This is her level and she looks the one to beat though fellow Irish raider, Zoola, is also worth a second look.
