After victories at Haydock and Nottingham, Eponina only failed by a length to complete a hat-trick at Leicester and is actually able to race off a lower mark here with Erika Parkinson taking off a further 7lb. Forbidden Beauty may enjoy the quicker surface and Libby Ami is threatening to get her head back in front. Girl From Ipanema was an eye-catcher at Newbury on her reappearance and is very interesting making her handicap debut off a lowly mark but LUBNA (NAP) was hugely impressive at Brighton and is probably worth following with cheekpieces added today as extra insurance.
