Jewelled is race-fit and likes it here. Lady Herries' mare isn't badly treated on her best form and should go close but SHARP AND SMART appears to have improved for another winter and was impressive when winning easily on her comeback at Chepstow - she should be good enough to defy her penalty. Silvas Romana may need this but Sarangoo will have benefited from a decent effort at Wolverhampton last month and is preferred to Friday's Chepstow third Berwin at the weights.
