SNOW CLOUD (NAP) made a winning reappearance at Redcar last week over 5f. She went close over today's trip last year and should confirm latest running with Penny Royale. Especial landed a maiden over track and trip last month and the runner-up has since boosted the form with a win while Thirsk winner Foreign Diplomat is not easily dismissed dropping back down into this grade. Three times a winner on the all-weather, Subversive is slipping back down the weights while Russian Heroine went close at Pontefract in October off today's mark.
