Codicil won all four starts last year but was well beaten on her reappearance and steps up from a mile for this. LUNAR CORONA shares ownership with the latter but sports Cheveley Park’s first colours after winning at Wolverhampton before placing at the same track last time. This longer trip should suit on her handicap debut and Sir Michael Stoute’s filly is just preferred to Inpromptu. The latter has won over today’s distance at Thirsk and also goes handicapping for the first time while Miss Latin makes more appeal than the more exposed Stoney Broke.
