Hanakotoba is upped 5lb after scoring at Wolverhampton but Sister of The Sign finished in front of One One Seven when winning over track and trip in January and came out best in a match at Lingfield a fortnight ago. Arishka remains hard to predict though Kickham Street may finish closer on only his second start since October but HANATI (NAP) makes most appeal. She found only one too good carrying a penalty at Southwell last time and won a novices race on the Tapeta at Wolverhampton before that so there should be more to come from Simon Crisford’s filly now handicapping.
