CHLOELLIE has won six times at this venue since January last year. A hat-trick of course and distance wins beckons for John Jenkins’ filly despite a 3lb higher mark as she already has the measure of both Chica De La Noche and Natalie Express. Rippling Waters also arrives on the back of a win having finally landed a handicap with a victory over a longer trip at Chelmsford while the unpredictable Titan Goddess went close over track and trip before running a shocker when favourite back here last time. Sonnet Rose is not badly treated on her winning form and should be sharper for last month’s reappearance.
