Trotter just missed out when beaten a short-head here a week ago. Prazeres was back in third but that was his debut for new connections and first start since August and he should be sharper for this. Lostock started joint-favourite but was still beaten a long way despite finishing third over 5f at this venue and Seneca Chief was last of five at Chelmsford on his racecourse debut. ANNA MEDICI’s sister won over 6f and her half-brother Cote D’Azur is a decent handicapper. This won’t take much winning so Sir Mark Prescott’s filly gets a speculative vote to make a winning start.
