Verdict
LES GAR GAN finished a close-up fourth in a decent nursery at York last time. Dropped in class for this, she can get back to winning ways. Omanome should also be thereabouts off a 3lb higher mark for winning over track and trip but Bandolier never threatened the winner when second at this track on his latest start. The latter gets help from a 5lb claimer today though while the likes of Hello Beautiful, Sukari Gold and Supa U have bits of form but none of them can be described as reliable.
