Ivory Silk bounced back to form with a couple of recent wins on the Polytrack and the presence of Ryan Moore will make her a popular choice. However, she's yet to win in 14 starts on turf and Tewin Wood is another who has done all his winning on the all-weather so far. CARA'S REQUEST won four times over today's trip last term and Dandy Nicholls' charge gets the tentative vote to resume where he left off after winning at Catterick when last seen. Stablemate Rio Cobolo made a winning reappearance at Southwell last month and should go well again, with Another Try looking best of the rest.
