This won’t take much winning and Greycious Girl finished ahead of OOH IS IT when third at Bath two weeks ago. Better was expected from the latter that day, however, and she did meet interference so the placings could be reversed with David Evans’ filly looking to have the best of the draw today. Emjaytwentythree has twice finished second over this trip and finished ahead of Sixcor over 7f at Wolverhampton last time while a change of scenery may benefit former stablemate Joy Choi. Shimla Rolann hasn’t been disgraced over longer trips recently and gets headgear to sharpen her up.
