Ran up to best when fourth of 7 in handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, good, 10/1) 10 days ago. Bit more likely needed if she's to get off the mark.

Forecasts

Serenity Dream (4/1), Hilltop (9/2), Extrication (9/2), Daisy Roots (5/1), King Cabo (5/1), Beau Jardine (9/1), Dark Sun (12/1), Blue Collar Lad (12/1), Future Cutlet (16/1), Classy Clarets (33/1), Jackson Street (40/1)

Verdict

HILLTOP was beaten only by a rival that got first run at Chelmsford last time and can go one place better here from a 2 lb higher mark. Blue Collar Lad has remained in good form since his C&D win and may pose the biggest threat, with the return to 7f a clear plus, Serenity Dream completes the shortlist.
