Ya Latif has not progressed as expected after winning at Salisbury in June while Lady Estella and Queen Aggie have both been beaten off higher marks since scoring last month at this track and Brighton respectively. The 6f winner For Ayman is another now looking high enough in the weights but For Shia And Lula pops up when in the mood. Faintly was below par last time and drops down a grade along with GRAND SPIRIT but the latter started this season on 7lb higher mark and may prove good enough back on the all-weather.
