Arizona Desert’s third at Newcastle last month was her best run to date and Anonymous Guest has already placed over this course and distance. Weston Court has improved with experience and receives weight all round while Hawa Jumeirah has sights lowered. Dropped 2lb since making her handicap at Catterick last month, VINTAGE LOVE was placed again over a mile at Newcastle and she deserves some reward for her consistency. Moreginplease and Shaws Phoenix were both beaten favourites last time.
