Queens Royale has won two of her last three starts and is upped 4lb for her latest success at Southwell while Loveatfirstsight bids for a hat-trick off a 3lb higher mark after scoring at Lingfield last time. Tellovoi is back on a winning mark and ran well at Newcastle on his penultimate start but DASHING POET makes a quick reappearance having finished fourth behind Dutiful Son at Lingfield two days ago and Heather Main’s filly may prove good enough in this.
