Verdict
SAINT HELENA won over a mile here recently with Dovil's Duel in third and Mcdelta further behind. The top weight stays this longer trip and should go well again raised only 3lb. Mary Le Bow won at Wolverhampton in February but has yet to score on Turf but Kristal Hart is a course and distance winner and arrives on the back of a recent success at Chelmsford. Invincible Wish went close over 1m4f on the all-weather last month, when ahead of Nouvelle Ere, and Let Me In has been thereabouts at Wolverhampton recently.
