Just Maddie is penalised for landing a very moderate novices' handicap here last month and will find this tougher. Flora's Pride was runner-up to Bogside Theatre in this a year ago but has only showed limited ability since and was a big disappointment when fancied at Wetherby last time. KYKATE showed little in two bumpers before a very promising debut over timber at Sedgefield where she finished runner-up to Alexander Road. She will have come on for that experience and gets the nod over Sweet Caroline, a good third at Ayr in early January before finding 2m4f beyond her at Musselburgh.
