Verdict
If not for suffering a disqualification for interference last season, JOLIE BLONDE would have won her last four starts having made a winning return at Lingfield last month. She may not have finished improving yet and can defy a hike in the weights. Winter Spice went close at Kempton on his first start over 2m and is preferred to Ffos Las winner Daghash, who beat Oratorio's Joy at the latter track and finished ahead of Annaluna when fourth at Chester recently. Snow Conditions scored over track and trip last time but is upped 5lb and facing much tougher opposition today.
