Lady Of Longstone was ridden out by Michael Heard to beat Kayla over a longer trip here last week but, given her past record, doesn't appeal as the type to follow up under a penalty. Ballydague Lady has top weight and an absence to overcome while Queen Spud has been out of sorts lately. Amour D'or was behind Lady Of Longstone at Newton Abbot earlier this month, though is 11lb better off. THE SCARLETT WOMAN hinted at ability in her first season over timber. She's not been rushed and that patience could be rewarded this winter - she looks leniently treated on her first venture into handicaps.
