Lesley's Choice couldn't cope with the return to handicap company in June having won a couple of claimers for the last two legs of a C&D hat trick. A 6lb rise for a victory at Newcastle put paid to Wild Sauce's chance at Chester last time and it remains to be seen if Liberty Island can confirm latest running at Haydock with Thirteen Shivers off a 5lb higher mark. Pea Shooter attempted to make all at the same track earlier this month and very nearly succeeded but SELFARA gets another chance in this. She can be forgiven her latest below par effort over 6f at Ffos Las as she'd recorded a double over today's trip earlier and can return to winning ways here.
