Dane Cottage has slipped to a winnable mark but is still a maiden on the all-weather and was five lengths behind IGUACU at Lingfield last time. The winner has been in good form since cheekpieces were fitted and is still looking nicely handicapped. Black Coffee gained his first Polytrack victory over this C&D last month and didn't do too badly in a slightly higher grade event on a return visit a couple of weeks later. Tres Froide is very consistent around here but surprisingly has never won on the track. She again ran well behind Lord Lansing on Friday and will surely be breaking her all-weather duck before long.
