Shambra is upped 10lb for winning at Redcar but was due to run at Beverley yesterday. Cool Music won at the latter track last time when recording her first win since making a winning debut in 2014 but THREE DUCHESSES (NAP) is preferred. She romped home by six lengths over 1m2f at Yarmouth a week ago and 6lb extra may not be enough to anchor her over this longer trip. Fillydelphia scored over track and trip last summer and is now back on a winning mark while Pennerley slips further down the weights but remains resolutely out of form.
