Most of these are returning from an absence but IMSHIVALLA has slipped back down to a winning mark having had three starts this year and Richard Fahey’s mare is at home on most types of going. High Hopes ended last year with a double at Ffos Las but is upped in class off a higher mark for her reappearance, though Indulged scored in this grade at Lingfield when last seen in action in November. Vogueatti won on the all-weather back in February and is 5lb higher while Berengaria steps up in distance having won a maiden over 7f last year.
