TENBY LADY returned to winning ways at York last week and a 6lb penalty is unlikely to anchor her here as she's taking a big drop in class. It'll be a surprise if Sir Mark Prescott's filly doesn't follow-up. Brighton winner Golden Waters couldn't cope with the step up into this grade at Nottingham recently, but Flying Phoenix has solid claims on her best form. Ninfea will have come on for her reappearance at Newbury and can make the frame.
