MISS FEDORA ran her best race yet when chasing home a thrown-in winner at Fontwell 37 days ago and, still unexposed at this sort of trip, and in receipt of a handy 4-y-o allowance, she could be worth chancing to build on that now. Lady Gwen on debut for Kim Bailey and Never No Trouble head up the dangers.
