CHANCEUSE returned to winning ways in a handicap over track and trip a fortnight ago. She's just preferred to Claude Greenwood, who won the other division of the same handicap beating Abigails Angel a head with Libra Romana further back. Why Not Now and Royal Caper are other recent course winners but both have been beaten off higher marks subsequently while Lutine Charlie continues to tumble down the weights as he looks to end a long losing run.
