Verdict
NO COMPLAINING continues to steadily improve and looks the type who only does just enough to win. She beat Sunset Boulevard by a nose at Kempton last month and Barney Curley's filly can land her hat-trick off only a 2lb higher mark. Stargazing opened her account over the extended 1m1f here last time and a good run from runner-up Lord Deevert in the card's opener would boost the form, while Lady Excel can improve on her reappearance effort when fourth to Piquante. Tomintoul Star has a bit to find and Lilyannabanana hasn't raced since 2009.
