NORMANDIE LADY (NAP) is still improving as witnessed by last month’s success at Hamilton. She can go in again with an apprentice’s allowance negating a 5lb rise in the weights. Just Hiss is finding it more difficult to get his head in front but went close in a maiden race at Pontefract last time while Arcane Dancer scored over a shorter trip here recently but has been well beaten since, including when second over course and distance. Ninetta drops further down the weights as she looks to land a handicap for the first time.
