Novel Dancer will find this tougher than the amateurs' race he won at Lingfield last month while Our Golden Girl has been well beaten since finishing runner-up here in January. She has a bit to find with ELEGANT OPHELIA on recent running. Dean Ivory's mare ran a shocker on Turf last time but will be more at home back on this surface. Dumbfounded returns to action off a 5lb higher mark after making the frame over 2m here in November while though Thecornishcowboy is back on a winning mark, he was scheduled to run at Nottingham yesterday.
