Vinnieslittle Lamb has never won under Rules and was beaten a long way into second at Plumpton last time. She'll probably lose her maiden tag when getting a stiffer test of stamina and WICKLEWOOD looks a better option over this trip. Mark Gillard's charge won twice here in May and, though 8lb higher than his last success, his form on the track should swing things his way. Red Whisper also scored here in the same month but pulled up behind the selection on his next start and is likely to find this ground too testing. The veteran Top Benefit last won in May of last year but has dropped to such a lowly mark that his chances shouldn't be dismissed.
