India opened her account with an easy win at Catterick though had to be dropped in class to do so. This is tougher off a 6lb higher mark while Giving Glances has been raised 7lb after scoring at Lingfield and Chester winner Amazing Michele attempts this longer trip for the first time. Great White Shark hasn’t raced since May but SAVING GRACE (NAP) was progressing nicely until finding the extended 1m5f too far at Newbury last month. Luca Cumani’s filly had won over today’s distance at Doncaster before that with a subsequent winner back in fourth and gets another chance in this.
