FIVE ZEROS didn't seem ideally suited by the drop to 7f here last time and could be the answer back at 1m as the form of her C&D second in January looks solid. Ellabella and Philly's Hope are both drawn a bit wider than ideal but the fact they are recent C&D winners, twice in the former's case, counts for plenty at this level and they can give Nigel Slevin's mare most to think about.
