VANITAS had raced exclusively over 7f, scoring on Polytrack at Lingfield, before reverting to this trip at Pontefract and just holding on. She has a penalty to carry but can go in again. Tequila Royale landed a course and distance maiden on ground with some give and got taken off her feet on fast going at Carlisle so conditions should be in her favour. Her stable also run Naughty Ana, who led until close home over this trip at Redcar and has been left on the same mark. David Barron also has two entries and easy Carlisle winner Time Has Wings is back on her favoured going after finding the ground much too quick at Thirsk.
