FIRST EXPERIENCE (NAP) won a higher grade handicap over a mile at Lingfield last time but has won over this shorter trip three times before. She’s preferred to Nottingham runner-up Stars N Angels, who has yet to win, while Gleaming Girl looks to be treading water racing off the same mark for the sixth successive time today without winning. Secret Insider went close at Southwell last time but remains 7lb higher than her earlier win at Chelmsford while Greenfyre and Serradura are even harder to fancy.
