Cliodhna has been beaten twice at this level and even this extra furlong may not be enough to get her on the scoresheet. DYLAN ALEXANDER has improved with each run and went well for a long way over this trip in a maiden at Chester so should be good enough for this. Little Pippin looked in need of the experience on her debut at Redcar though that was a very low-grade affair so Sky Ferry, who showed some improvement at Windsor last time, may prove best of the remainder.
