Serena Brotherton is based in Yorkshire so her presence on board Fenner Hill Neasa is intriguing as Pat Phelan's filly ran her best race to date on this track earlier this month. FLAG OF GLORY (NAP) won this last year under today's rider and is a standing dish around here. He hasn't got any better but is 11lb lower and would be considered something of a snip if the going turned soft. Lilly Bonbon hasn't had much experience but ran her best race so far in a handicap over the course and distance a couple of weeks ago and is one of the few here with scope. Elle Rebelle was beaten 7l into second over 1m4f here last time but is better at this trip and only 1lb higher than her last winning mark but Chella Thriller has only won on Polytrack and has never been placed on Turf.
