NICE TO SEA (NAP) has yet to win but has had just the six outings and was beaten less than a length over course and distance on only her second start for Olly Murphy. She looks set to open her account and today’s opposition is not the most reliable. Ember's Glow, Apex Predator and Tigerfish were all successful over today’s trip at Kempton last month but all have been beaten subsequently while Man Of Verve scored over a shorter distance here in November. Power Home is usually thereabouts without winning and False Id has struggled off higher marks since scoring at the track on Boxing Day.
