Verdict
It's difficult to have much confidence in any of this bunch. SAXONETTE went close at Ayr in between a couple of ordinary efforts and may be good enough. Busy Bimbo finished last on her reappearance but won here last year off a 10lb lower mark. She has won an amateurs race since while Minty Jones was placed off a higher mark at Nottingham last month and Lizzie's Dream finished third at Musselburgh on her penultimate start but has not won since 2012. The remainder are even harder to fancy.
