SELBY’S PRIDE has only raced at Beverley so far and improved with every start. Her latest neck defeat suggests she won’t be long in winning and Tony Coyle’s filly looks the one to beat. Lucy Lulu is the more exposed and carries a penalty for winning at Doncaster back in May. Lady Ardad may improve past the latter and is preferred to Miss Belladonna while Tim Easterby won this with subsequent high-class sprinter Winter Power last year but Prayer Matt made only a moderate debut at Redcar.
