It’s difficult to be confident about any of these but LADY BAYSIDE scored over track and trip in June and could be thereabouts once again. Fantasy Queen was well ahead of Zebedee's Girl when scoring over 7f here last month but never figured over a mile last time and Smart Mover also has something to prove over today’s distance having won over 6f at Pontefract back in April. Zaria won over a mile at Epsom earlier this year and Golden Isles may do better dropping down in class today.
