HANDMAID should make the most of the 10lb she receives from Plumpton scorer Bugsy's Girl in the first division of this mares' bumper. A daughter of King's Theatre and a half-sister to two winning jumpers, Peter Bowen's four-year-old made a promising start behind Down Ace at Bangor last month and will have benefited from the experience. Miss Dimples and Spartaculous look held on that run but Dardanella is interesting having finished ahead of Bad Girls and Just Got Lucky here on debut when easy to back. Miss Probus should be monitored for market support.
