Alans Pride has won a couple of races and is just preferred to Michael Dods' other runner, What Could She Be, who is still a maiden. Declan Carroll is also double-handed and his MRS BIGGS finished ahead of Atreus when just beaten at Catterick last week. Any improvement on that would see the filly in the firing-line here. Darrell Rivers started favourite at Chepstow last month but let supporters down again and might find a couple too good here.
