TARA MIST, who was only beaten half-a-length by a subsequent Grade 3 winner at Leicester in January and was then fourth in a Listed handicap at Newbury, should make short work of these. She won't be much of a price, however, so forecast-backers might want to look at Donna's Pride to chase her home. The Reveley mare got off the mark on soft going at Catterick in February but it's a worry that she was well beaten on slightly quicker ground at Newcastle last month.
