This is a wide open contest and we will take a chance with She's Our Beauty, Turn Me On and Miss Mujahid Times look to be the main rivals. The Dandy Nicholls trained filly was rated 69 last season but following some poor displays is now down to a mark in the low fifties. She showed signs of a form revival last time behind Alugat and coukld be ready to strike. Turn Me On has been steadily improving and wasn't beaten far by Piddles Pride in a competitive race at Folkestone recently. He looks certain to play a part in the finish. Miss Mujahid Times hit winning form last time. It was a modest event but the handicapper hasn't been too harsh. The pick of the others could be Sweetly Sharp but we return to Shes Our Beauty for the likely winner.
