Legal Reform landed a hat-trick of lower grade contests when successful at Lingfield and is only 4lb higher.

Pearly Star won over track and trip a fortnight ago but the latter’s less exposed stablemate PRINCESS NIYLA won a novices' race over course and distance at the start of the month and may be the one to side with on her handicap bow.
