Page Three takes on younger rivals on her Turf debut after placed efforts at Kempton and Newcastle. She led at this trip in the latter event but still showed signs of inexperience and hung left in the closing stages. ROGUE SEA has a penalty for an impressive victory on soft ground at Yarmouth but didn't handle heavy going when a well-beaten runner-up at Nottingham. The winner has scored again subsequently so the form looks useful. King Me made a reasonable debut on fast going at Haydock in September but then ran moderately on the all-weather and hasn't been seen since November. Palio will improve from his Salisbury run over this more suitable trip.
