Several unbeaten mares and fillies put their unbeaten records on the line in this Listed contest and Free Thinking has to go on the short-list. She has Supreme Present back in third when winning at Fakenham last month having beaten Definitely Glad on her debut at Kempton. Tamarina Bay was very impressive at Bangor while Midnight Minx has been kept to bumpers again this season and her trainer, responsible for last year's third and fourth, were rewarded when she made a winning reappearance at Catterick ahead of a subsequent winner. CENTASIA only won by a head at Ludlow in January but the runner-up has scored since and the third was a previous winner. David Pipe's six-year-old needs to improve again to complete her hat-trick but should be capable of doing so. Our Pollyanna has her first start for Alan King but could also go close.
