This looks a tricky race for punters to solve as most are in good form. That certainly applies to Arabian Jazz, a winner at Beverley before finding an extended mile beyond her at Nottingham. Mick Easterby won this last year and Harvest Day has been running well despite going up 10lb for completing an all-weather double in January. Boreagh Lass has only had four runs, winning at Windsor in August, and she's the type to do better this campaign. DALAWYNA attempted to make all over a mile on good to soft at Pontefract but couldn't quite hold off Jo's Girl. She's been handed a 3lb rise but can prove better than a 67-rated handicapper. Kalagia has been running well enough but looks a few pounds high at present, a remark that also applies to Queen Penn.
