Call The Fairies is hard to assess as she looked to be travelling pretty well when falling three out last time. Previously she'd been well beaten by the re-opposing Toughasoldboots and is now 6lb better off, since when the McCain filly has found life tougher on subsequent starts. Ayr Of Elegance is usually there or thereabouts but the handicapper has looked in charge of late with her and Rebel Roxy is best watched on return from a lay-off dating back to November - unless the market suggests otherwise. Therefore, the choice is MALINA OCARINA, a winner at Uttoxeter in selling company in the summer of 2021, but who has returned to action after almost a year's absence with two creditable handicap efforts around Cartmel in much better company and who runs here off an unchanged mark.
