Listed winner Nymphadora comes out best at the weights but came up short in the Lowther at York last time and still has something to prove over this far. WINGS OF WAR was beaten less than a length in a valuable sales race at the same York fixture and another bold bid is expected from Clive Cox’s grey. Fearless Angel and Honey Sweet were both beaten in Listed races on their latest starts while the unbeaten Hierarchy is preferred to Scot's Grace of those stepping up in class.
