Verdict
Lezardrieux recorded both wins last year over today’s trip at Newcastle while Craigburn scored over a longer distance at Thirsk in September. Pretty Lady started joint-favourite at Lingfield on her recent reappearance but never recovered from a bad stumble at the start and was tailed-off behind fourth-placed Comeatchoo. Sur Mer placed in all three outings at Southwell earlier in the year and makes her handicap debut along with ICE ICE LADY. The latter could only finish third under a penalty last time but had made a winning debut over the minimum trip at Lingfield only five days earlier and the runner-up has subsequently won.
