HURRICANE HELEN has really found her form with two recent victories at Bath. She's also won here and though all of her four career successes have been at a lower level the opposition looks moderate. Atomise gained her only victory on soft ground while Lady Madonna's best run came on Polytrack and she was well beaten here last time after attempting to make all. Me Next ran her best race to date when tackling this trip for the first time at Brighton but Senorita didn't show much improvement on her reappearance at Chepstow.
