Plenty of course form on offer with Anna Jammeela winning two of her last three starts here and having every chance again. She beat Chica Da Silva and Tingo In The Tale last time and Tilly Devine and Di's Gift over track and trip in November. The latter has subsequently finished behind runner-up Sincerely Resdev here but HANDSOME BOB gets the vote. The latter returned to winning ways on last month’s debut on this surface and Keith Dalgleish’s charge is taken to go in again and confirm running with both Lean On Pete and Oceanus in the process.
