LITTLE SWEETHEART has won over track and trip and though not seen since a close third to today's rival Calm Bay at Down Royal in June she's well handicapped on that run and gets the vote. Well Done Me hasn't won in 20 starts but is getting closer and her second to Shanghai Beauty at Bellewstown could get a boost in the previous race. Enter The Red usually runs well here and likes soft ground so he's on the shortlist as is Barbeque, who won over 6f here last month before finding a 5lb rise and softer going against her at Listowel last week.
