WALAAA is penalised 6lb for winning at Kempton on her handicap debut but most of that is negated by Gary Mahon's allowance. The Hannon filly should go close again but Global Avenger was only narrowly beaten in a seller at Wolverhampton last time and this is not much better. Course and distance winner Fable Of Arachne and recent runner-up Bahamian Boy are more exposed but capable of getting involved with Romantic Comedy perhaps best of the remainder.
