Velvet Vista failed in a bid for a hat-trick when beaten off today’s mark at Chelmsford while Port Noir won at Wolverhampton last month but is 8lb higher. Delagate The Lady scored over 6f last time but has something to prove over today’s trip and Broughton Sunpearl and Sayifyouwill are preferred. Lower Street improved at Chelmsford on her handicap debut and can figure again but HASANAAT is also expected to show further progress now handicapping and Owen Burrows’ filly gets the nod in an open contest.
