BAINNE returned a losing favourite over 7f here last week with Art Scene well beaten but had finished closer when third over C&D before that. She was a length ahead of today's main rival Rapid Approach on that occasion with Elastomer and Dark Approach further behind and Charlie Swan's filly gets another chance here. Tylery Wonder beat a couple of these when runner-up over the minimum trip here a fortnight ago and should be in the mix once again.
