Winterval's effort at Haydock last time was short-lived but he should be more at home in this grade. Borak won a similar race to this at Doncaster last time but has faster conditions to contend with here. Fondly was only beaten a neck in a Lingfield fillies' handicap last time but, like Montefalcon, is untried over this trip. LANDWADE LAD is a bit one-paced but has been holding his own in better company than this and it could be his turn today.
