Sweetasever should play a leading role again having perhaps not enjoyed the most luck in running when third last time out at this track. She might just struggle to overhaul old foe SHEISDIESEL however. A length separated them previously over 7f and while the selection has since run a disappointing race, she's reunited with a claimer for whom she'd run well on that occasion and can land this now tackling a mile for the first time. Tilly's Chilli and Hailstone are two for the shortlist with potential to improve now sent handicapping. 1. Sheisdiesel 2. Sweetasever 3. Tilly's Chilli
