BANZARI never threatened in the Group 2 May Hill at Doncaster last month but this represents a huge drop in grade for Michael Bell's filly and there will be a few eyebrows raised if she doesn't get off the mark today. None of the others with experience have shown much so far with Triple Dip looking all at sea on good to soft ground at Chester last time. Newcomer Miss Understood could be interesting, however, as she's a full sister to Excellent Puck who has won three times between 1m and 1m2f.
