A decent entry for this mares’ Grade 2 which sees surprise Haydock Listed winner Desaray Girl looking to confirm running with Flow Away on 5lb worse terms. Philip Kirby’s five-year-old boasts the best form and is preferred to stablemate Rayna's World but the battle-hardened Deja Vue is a threat and so is course winner Emmas Joy. VIENNA COURT ran a cracker when second at Newbury and then won in a canter at Taunton. She seems to have got her act together and is worth a try over the longer trip. Fontaine Collonges has won a couple of bumpers but is setting off at the deep end over timber.
