The winner of four of her last five starts, CHEVISE is hard to oppose here. Her latest win at Lingfield came at the expense of today's rival Captain Dimitrios and she can confirm superiority despite the worse terms. The latter has since been well beaten in much better company but looks the one to chase home the selection once again back in this grade. Fairy Tales finished a length in front of Shutupandrive last time but both were well beaten, while Slatey Hen has gone off the boil of late.
