STAR OF LADY M had a busy juvenile campaign. She’s only just started to rediscover her form in recent weeks and this looks a good opportunity to record win number five. Paddy's Day has placed the last twice while Knebworth bolted up on good to soft at Haydock but is penalised along with Honour Your Dreams, who just edged out Betweenthesticks at Hamilton. The drop back to 5f should help Seantrabh reverse Chester running with Northcliff but headgear would need to improve Kokomo.
