EQUINETTE never looked like catching the winner when second at Chelmsford but this looks much easier and she has every chance on today’s terms given most of these have a handicap mark. Lovin' Spoonful and Any Joy have plenty to find with Amanda Perrett’s charge at the weights, with the former preferred as she drops back in trip, but both are clear of the remainder. Polish Empress is the least exposed but will need a big improvement on her modest debut effort at Wolverhampton.
