COMPLEXION showed improved form when running out an impressive winner on soft ground at Yarmouth last month on her handicap debut. It's worth chancing she'll handle today's faster conditions as there should be plenty more to come. Newbury winner Bakoura will appreciate the return to a mile after her second over 7f at Leicester, while Yarmouth runner-up Crystal High has claims on her handicap bow along with Vita Lika. Loving Thought and Sahafh have a bit to find but the consistent Hurricane Lady should be thereabouts.
