Most have some sort of chance but NIMIETY makes most appeal off the bottom rung after staying on strongly to score over this trip at Bath. She's returned from a lengthy absence this term, having posted some useful juvenile efforts in 2011. Clearly over her problems based on that latest success, she can continue to make up for lost time and score again. Zeyran is another that has had training setbacks but has remained with the Cecil yard into her four-year-old career which looks significant. She travelled really well until tiring late on at Salisbury on reappearance and the step back to a mile looks ideal. A big run is expected. Toga Tiger and Cruiser are preferred of the more exposed brigade.
