FLAMBOROUGH BREEZE found only Ermyntrude, who runs in the previous race, too good over course and distance last time. She can go one better off her current mark. Expuntia also went close here last time when Rapid Water was well behind and the latter had earlier beaten Finlodex at Lingfield in December. Teen Ager won over 7f at the track last month and may figure while Compton Crofter finished a bit closer here a fortnight ago though in lesser company.
