Noblest easily landed a maiden over 7f here last month and has only finished out of the frame once in six starts. She should be thereabouts again while Tiger's Home only failed by a neck to land a hat-trick on this course last week and can't be ignored as she holds Caltra Colleen on the form book. WHAT COULD SHE BE (NAP) has run well on all three starts on Fibresand, including when successful in a maiden over track and trip last time. She could be worth following back in handicap company but Capelita hasn't raced since scoring at Kempton in August.
