Both of Robert Cowell’s pair, Swell Song and Awarded, have a competent 5lb claimer on board. Sweet Forgetme Not might be improving and Laura's Legacy is only a pound out of the handicap. Fairy Fast won over 6f at Ripon and has a penalty but could find further improvement in first-time blinkers. Josephine Gordon will have to bide her time on VALLEY BELLE, who has a wide draw, but Phil McEntee’s filly has recorded her only victory to date here and she’ll be running on at the death having gone close the last twice over further.
