CHOOKIE'S LASS looks to have every chance in this on recent form. She went close at Chelmsford last time and is taken to confirm superiority with fourth-placed Sakhee's Rose. The latter won over 7f here in January and has the beating of Moiety on more recent running. Poetic Choice and Fab Lolly won off lower marks last year and both drop back in distance today and Verus Delicia is back on a winning mark as she returns to action.
