Timia won a maiden handicap at Lingfield in January but has reverted to type since. Phil McEntee's pair, Justice Rock and Lady Lloyd, are proving hard to place but Born To Finish only found one too good on his reappearance at Chelmsford, though is closely matched with third Strictly Carter on today's revised terms. NAG'S WAG won at Bath and Kempton last year and could find further improvement for the switch to George Baker. She is preferred to former stablemate Addicted To Luck and Canford Belle.
