Today's ground may be a little lively for Ereyna while Amazing D'Azy will have to jump a lot better than she did at Uttoxeter to take a hand. Cash For Steel and Jewellery are both up in grade and the latter is also looking high enough in the weights now. EBONY EMPRESS was receiving weight when beaten by Amazing D'Azy at Newton Abbot in June but stepped up on that run when beating a subsequent winner at the Devon track next time and can take her revenge today. Cove stays well but hasn't raced since May and might prefer further so is probably best watched.
