Isango only won by a short-head at Wolverhampton and is 4lb higher. Mary Somerville has gone close twice on Polytrack but didn’t run so well on Turf in between. King's Girl has yet to race beyond 6f and became disappointing last year but Tartlette looks the type to find considerable improvement now going handicapping with a mark of 63 possibly lenient. AL MESSILA is by Toronado so should stay the mile and she has had wind surgery since placing three time on Polytrack and the end of last year. She doesn’t look the easiest of rides but Sean Levey may be able to nurse her home. I'm Available is another with solid all-weather form but Arctic Fox may have more scope.
