Robert Cowell tries March in a first-time hood which is hardly surprising after she virtually refused to race at Windsor. He earlier run in a Listed race at Bath would point to her chances but, even if she gets away with the others, she may find HOODNA too strong. The Godolphin filly made a very encouraging return to action over this track and trip at the end of last month and, with that under her belt, can go one better. Godolphin are also represented by Desert Blossom, placed in the Group 2 Rockfel here as a juvenile but last on her belated reappearance at Leicester earlier this month. Maid A Million has dropped in the ratings recently so may be better off in a handicap but Melody Of Love hasn't shown much in her two starts this season following a long absence.
