Three Little Birds has had plenty of chances and if there is any rain around her chances look as though they will take another knock as all of her better form is on quicker ground than she is likely to face here. There are a few that could improve here and she looks a vulnerable market leader with both SANCERRE and Zapateado capable of building on their initial runs the former maybe just a little more than the latter. Katie Lee is an interesting newcomer although her stable haven't troubled the scorers this year in the juvenile department with Expediate needing to bounce back from a poor run last time out to make an impression.
