Verdict
Annaley My Darling made the frame again at Wolverhampton last time but was still beaten five lengths. Sally Bruce went close in a maiden at Kempton last month and Prom Dress finished third in similar company over 7f back in January. HAWSIES DREAM looks to have the stronger form on her efforts in handicaps and she gets the nod with Paul Hanagan's booking taking the eye. Angels Calling is only 2lb higher than last year's win at Ffos Las and could prove the biggest threat to the selection.
