This is all about ICONIC BELLE , who has run with some promise on both her starts so far this year, building on some fair performances at two last season. In a weaker race, the form of her third in a Bath maiden last time out well may be enough here and it's not beyond possibility that she could improve further. She is taken to see of the challenge of both Delannoy , who benefits from Jim Crowley's services for the first time, and Bizet , who would have a small chance on his very best form.
