Shellebeau found only one too good over track and trip last time and Material Girl was placed at Newcastle on her latest start. But THANKS BE debuted in a tough conditions race over 7f at Newbury when only fading in the closing stages and she may prove good enough with today’s distance likely to suit. Newcomers to note include Listen To The Wind, a half-sister to winners over longer trips, while Made Of Talent is related to winning sprinters and the latter pair are both preferred to Red Impression.
