Trainer Paul Blockley knows what it takes to win these lowly contests and Soul Provider has shown enough to suggest that she can add to the stable's tally, with Your Just Lovely and United Union put up as the main dangers. Soul Provider put up a really good performance at Lingfield 18 days ago when third over a mile. She would have been receiving 11bs in a handicap and the trip was unknown territory, which made that effort all the more commendable. That was her first try over that distance, and although she ran well, the drop back to today's trip will suit, along with the plunge to selling company. She is exposed but has been consistent in maiden company, and has knowledge of the track as Leicester was the scene of her debut last April. Your Just Lovely comes from a stable that will definitely pay to follow on turf this year, while United Union, if anywhere near fit after a break, will appreciate this company. For the winner though we return to Soul Provider who is taken to add to the stable's victory in this race last year with Hit's Only Money.
