WANTING (NAP) bids to keep her unbeaten record intact having won on her handicap debut at Kempton with the re-opposing State Of The Union back in third. The Godolphin filly is taken to shrug off a 6lb rise and get the better of the maiden winners Belvoir Diva and Edgar Balthazar. Enlace went close on her reappearance but is upped in class for this but George Bowen ran well in this grade at York in October and may prove a danger on his reappearance. Lightscameraction finished just ahead of Squats at Lingfield last month but the latter is capable of much better and may well reverse running.
