Sur Mer bids for a hat-trick with an apprentice’s allowance negating most of a 6lb penalty for last week’s course and distance win. She’ll go close again but ANNA OF LORRAINE is just preferred having won over 6f here when reverting to sprinting. She takes a further drop today but has plenty of pace and Sir Michael Stoute’s filly can go in again. Maiden winner Stars In The Night has struggled in handicaps so far and Show Me The Bubbly returned a losing favourite at Bath last time but Rockingham Jill has plenty of scope now handicapping.
