EARDISLAND has been a bit disappointing since winning a novice event at Exeter in March but a break may have done her some good and she drops down a grade for this. Double Accord has also had a summer holiday but can chase home the top weight having been placed in both starts since landing a handicap over 3m at Taunton in April. Deja Bougg is 0-10 and Bitter Virtue has yet to make the frame in eight attempts so Miss Sassypants may do best of the rest, though she's thoroughly exposed.
