A competitive opener in which ENCHANTED LINDA is afforded another chance in the hope she can break on even terms with her rivals rather than continuing a recent trend of a tardy stall exit. She remains well treated on the best of her form and the claim of her useful apprentice will aid her cause as the combination went very close on her penultimate start. Lufricia looks a major threat back down to the minimum trip and returned to quicker conditions, whilst Society Queen could well be another to benefit from the move back to 5f. Raheeb and Mercenary Rose are both lightly-raced fillies who remain open to further progression and cannot be discounted.
