Fly By Nelly couldn't quite peg back the winner when runner-up over C&D last time and has to come into the reckoning. ERMYNTRUDE was beaten less than a length in that race and won over a mile at Brighton in August. She looks ready to strike again and gets the vote. Young Simon finished a length behind Rainsborough over 7f here recently and is weighted to reverse the form, while Join Up would have a leading chance if taking part but was engaged to run at Wolverhampton yesterday.
