SARAH COLLINS has had plenty of chances but she gets soft ground and a longer trip for the first time since arriving from Ireland and she's the pick on her best form. Tweedledrum has been placed in three of her nine starts but hasn't raced since pulling up in a mares' handicap at Stratford in April. My Legal Lady was disqualified after finishing first past the post over 2m6f here in May but is another returning from a break while Winning Note probably needs to improve again on her C&D fourth to get competitive in this. Lovely Muck is from excellent NH stock but is making her racecourse debut at the age of seven so may have had some problems.
