Chilly Miss was placed over a longer trip here under today’s conditional last time. But Jamie Hamilton is unable to claim under today’s race conditions and UNDEFINED BEAUTY (NAP) is preferred. A 8lb claimer takes over the reins on Olly Murphy’s mare who was narrowly beaten at Warwick three weeks ago - that could see her go one better in this. Stepover likes it here having won twice over track and trip already this year while Mortens Leam has placed off today’s mark on his last three outings now.
