You Don't Own Me has been beaten in France since winning over track and trip last month while Cliff Wind went close here earlier but returned a losing favourite at Lingfield last time. Lord P had struggled on Polytrack before making a winning start in handicaps with a victory on the Fibresand at Southwell but SIR RODNEYREDBLOOD is preferred. The latter has been raised 8lb for winning at Lingfield but John Jenkins’ charge won by a wide-margin eased down on that occasion and can go in again. Funny Little Ways finished closer at Dundalk on her handicap debut and should be noted representing Joseph O’Brien’s yard.
