NAALATT showed her liking for this surface when landing a maiden over a mile here by eight lengths. Today's shorter trip shouldn't be a problem and Roger Varian's filly can go in again. Sewn Up won over the minimum trip here last month but is unproven over today's longer distance and the remainder have yet to encounter Fibresand. Flashlight and Street Battle are recent winners at Wolverhampton and could prove the main dangers ahead of Isis Blue, who makes more appeal than Flighty Clarets and Marmot Bay after his recent second at Kempton.
