Mabel Jane’s victory at Leicester came back in 2020 and she’s penalised on her return. Star Angel went close over a shorter trip at the Curragh when last in action in May last year but has switched yards since, though is weighted to beat They Don't Know while Silence Is Golden is another returning from a lay-off. Bumper and hurdles winner COQUELICOT has yet to race on the all-weather but has been raised 12lb over timber since last seen on the Flat and could go close if translating that improvement over to this code.
