Stay In My Heart was second off this mark at Fontwell in August but seven lengths behind SHE'S NOBLE on this easier surface over course and distance in April. Suzy Smith's mare disappointed at Fontwell subsequently but wouldn't have enjoyed the quicker ground that day and is worth another chance with Paddy Brennan a positive jockey booking. Saint John Henry may do better now going handicapping but Torrential Raine has been off the track for a while. Shinooki won at Uttoxeter in May, however, and shouldn't be far away if fully wound-up.
