In a trappy affair, Lady Éclair can get the better of Ahmedy and Planetarium. Ahmedy is running off the same mark as when successful at Wolverhampton in October and showed signs of a return to form with a creditable effort in defeat at York last time. Planetarium is 9lbs better off for a four and a half length beating at the hands of Lady Éclair last time, but that may not be enough. Lady Éclair followed up that success by chasing home the prolific Just Lille at Musselburgh and running a solid third, not beaten far at Hamilton. LADY ECLAIR has been kept busy, but can resume winning ways here off a 1lb higher mark.
