Hodd's Girl and Sister Lola have both won three times here though the former is better known as a sprinter. The latter remark also applies to Pretty Smart, who has only run once beyond 6f and finished last. Marbling never got into contention here last week when favourite but Tellthemi'mhere has been going well on Turf and should be losing her maiden tag soon. MUSIC TO MY EARS (NAP), a maiden winner here two years ago, has been racing in much stronger company on Turf and is now on her lowest ever mark so gets the nod though Red Heel is a consistent performer at this level who should get into contention.
