MADE OF HONOUR won a higher grade race at Wolverhampton last month to land a hat-trick. A 3lb rise looks unlikely to anchor her in this and she gets the nod. Yeah Baby Yeah also drops in class having found only one too good at Kempton while Angel's Acclaim won a low grade contest at Newcastle when last seen in action in August. Fashion Theory scored twice in France for Godolphin last year and has changed hands since while Toy Theatre won over track and trip in October and is 4lb higher today.
