Verdict

All of these have something to prove but Lakeshore Lady went closest last time in a four-runner race at Leicester. Easter In Paris was second at Plumpton three runs ago while Tara Mac won at Lingfield before falling at Fakenham. MRSROBIN is back on a winning mark and wasn’t totally disgraced when third at Wincanton last time so gets a tentative vote as Vinnieslittle Lamb has had another break since returning at Towcester in November.
