Several of these arrive in decent form and Yukon Mission was possibly an unlucky loser at Pontefract 12 days ago. The worry is that she is still a maiden and has been beaten five times already off this mark. Forever A Lady lacks a recent run but Dandy's Angel won at Catterick nine days ago, though carries a penalty. Written Broadcast has been knocking on the door while Reely Bonnie was an easy winner at Ayr, though that was over 6f. GRACE AND VIRTUE handled good to soft last time at Haydock having won on a faster surface at Pontefract previously. She has improved with experience and could be the one to beat, despite a high draw.
