Race preview
An open affair with the casting vote going to POLLINATE, who posted her best effort yet when making late headway to finish fourth at Wolverhampton last time. The daughter of Oasis Dream remains lightly raced and she could be open to further improvement. Della Mare is a likely pace angle and she could be the danger if building on her latest second at Chelmsford, while Independence Day and Indian Affair make the shortlist.
