Quantify made all in a Wolverhampton maiden a month ago but the second and third were both beaten next time and she only gets a pound here from LYRIC PIECE, even though Sir Mark Prescott's filly carries a penalty after bolting up in a similar contest at Ripon nine days ago - she's the one to beat. Familliarity wasn't beaten far at Sandown on her latest start and looks the main danger to the selection as Dame De La Noche remains a maiden yet gets little respite from the handicapper.
