Smullen has a good draw and was always prominent when just failing to find extra over 6f at Hamilton. FLYINGDALE is on the outside but came from well off the pace to finish fourth at Redcar and this stiffer track should play to her strengths. Enraged came from a long way back when fourth on her debut here while Prodigious Blue has been showing good pace over 6f. All of the newcomers are worth noting in the market especially Alnood, a half-sister to five winners and Jen's Gift, whose dam has produced three winning sprinters.
