Lady Willa broke a blood vessel when last seen a month ago and there has to be some doubt about her while Jamesson has been beaten a long way on all recent starts. Goring Two blundered his way around Fontwell last time so a process of elimination leads us to EVELLA. She's won four races over fences and though pulled up at Lingfield last time will have found the trip too short.
