Foxy Forever is a rare winner nowadays though is regularly placed and reversed earlier running with Dynamo Walt with You're Cool further behind when runner-up at Wolverhampton last time. Verne Castle landed a course and distance double off higher marks back in 2018 but hasn’t won since so a chance is taken CHITRA handles the rise in class given her current good form. Daniel Kubler’s filly recorded a double over the minimum trip at Lingfield last month and has now won four of only nine starts on the all-weather.
