Yojojo hasn't won for a while, though this race was one of her six victories in 2013. But the winner of last year's renewal also returns for more in the shape of TARO TYWOD (NAP). She can race off a 3lb lower mark today and gets the vote with Cam Hardie keeping the winning partnership intact. Steppe Daughter returned the easy winner of a Bath maiden last month and makes more appeal than the unreliable Acclio, who is capable of going close on her day but it's anybody's guess when that will be.
