Bold Cross has a tougher task than when winning at Bath last week and Forward Feline has done all her winning so far at Wolverhampton. Cape Kimberley won a ladies' amateur race at Salisbury last time and on that form has the beating of Come On Safari and You've been Mowed, but TAP DANCE WAY makes more appeal. She's 2lb higher than when scoring at Bath in August but her recent reappearance at the same track, when sent off favourite and only fading close home, suggests Pat Chamings' filly is up to winning off her current mark.
