Despite being the older horse, Eponina receives weight from the younger fillies but will need to produce a career-best to oblige. Bedwyah has the important win already in the book for paddocks value but faces a tough task against KALAGIA (NAP). Mark Johnston's filly was over four lengths clear of the Stoute filly at Beverley and is taken to confirm placings here as she's since posted an easy Bath success and looks to be yet another from the production line of constantly progressive Johnson three-year-olds.
