DAPHNE MAY left her first 4 efforts for her current yard well behind when getting back to winning ways at this course a week ago and she can follow up for her in-form trainer. Heading the possible dangers is Elegant Ellen who opened her account on her penultimate outing, while Cappananty Con is respected back down in grade.
