Folga ran better at Kempton last time but earlier turf form had been disappointing and she may be best watched with preference for Pippa's Dancer, who gets the vote ahead of Golden Asha. The last mentioned probably found conditions too testing at Thirsk last time and could be of more interest back on more suitable going today. Gay Kelleway's Mugeba is entitled to come on for his run at Yarmouth on Thursday but would probably want a softer surface, while Daniella may be a shade high in the weights judged by her latest effort at Thirsk. A market move for Highland Cascade would be of interest but the vote goes to Pippa's Dancer, who has run well on the all-weather in her last two starts and a reproduction of those efforts should suffice back on turf.
