It took a while for TINKERBELLE to get off the mark but first-time cheekpieces did the trick last time as she romped to victory and if John Gosden's charge has turned the corner she is the one to aim at here with Silent Act and M'lady Rousseur also in our thoughts. Seven lengths was the margin the pick took victory by last time and she was still going away as she crossed the line. The assessor has stepped in with a nine-pound penalty but if connections have found the key to success with this filly she'll be winning again. Silent Act has a progressive profile and only found one too good last time. He's up two pounds for that result but should improve to go close again. M'lady Rousseur receives weight all round and could make that count but has plenty of form to overturn on Tinkerbelle after their last meeting. Kazbow and Hold The Buck can also be given chances at the weights but after such a striking perromance last time we have to side with Tinkerbelle.
