SANTA TERESA (NAP) ran below par in soft ground at Newbury last month but won at Kempton earlier and the Haggas filly can come good again back on the Polytrack. Miss Buckshot is another Kempton winner with decent claims but Semaral is now 11lb higher than her win at the same track after a couple of recent placed efforts. History Book should be thereabouts again off her current mark but Tides Reach is upped in class on the back of a narrow-margin victory at Kempton.
