Irish raider Sultana Belle makes a quick reappearance after finishing fourth at Ayr last week and, though she's run well in the UK previously, her strike-rate of 1-28 over hurdles is hardly convincing. Nautical Twilight appeared to be on the upgrade at the backend of last year but she hasn't performed as well on her two latest starts. Tara Mac was undone by a bad mistake at Doncaster, though should be winning soon judged on her previous run at Musselburgh, but Wyfield Rose is taking a huge drop in trip after finishing close up over 3m1f at Catterick. BEYONDTEMPTATION is very moderate but has been finding the ground too testing since scoring at Newcastle in December and can return to winning ways.
