No Flies On Me has been off the track since scoring over course and distance in August but should go well again only 3lb higher. Marie Paradis finished third at Chelmsford more recently though Anniemation wasn’t far behind and that pair are hard to separate but a chance is taken on CAFE SYDNEY returning to her best. The latter completed a hat-trick of course wins last winter, including this contest, and is now 7lb lower than when last successful. Artisan Bleu placed over a longer trip here last month with Hart Fell behind but the latter has more scope for improvement.
