LIL'S JOY faced a tough task in Listed company at York a fortnight ago but acquitted herself well and will find this much easier. She is preferred to Socialites Red, placed in both starts to date and also dropped in class after a third in a conditions race at Beverley last week. The latter had earlier finished ahead of Copacobana but Bond Bombshell never looked like catching the winner when second at Thirsk last time. Mark Johnston won this with a newcomer in 2013 so Fireglow is worth noting along with Girls In A Bentley.
