This looks tricky with doubts surrounding the leading contenders regarding either distance or going. QUEEN JO JO has yet to encounter testing ground but finished a creditable third in the Sky Bet Lowther Satkes over today’s trip at York and should confirm running with Firelight and Little Kim. Stablemate Glass Slippers beat Light My Fire a neck in a conditions race on good ground at Chester recently while Queen Of Bermuda finished well ahead of Second Generation in a Group 3 in France last time but has done all her racing over 5f so far. Kodyanna will handle the underfoot conditions but has recorded both her wins to date over the minimum trip.
