WINTERWELL failed to land the odds on her debut for a new yard at Wolverhampton last month. But she's worth another chance on her earlier form in France and gets the nod. Sugar Town's recent poor effort may have come too soon after finishing third here on her debut and she could figure along with Marble Statuette, a well beaten runner-up at Lingfield earlier this month. Curious Mind is one to note on her introduction, although the half-sister to the useful Michelangelo will probably come into her own over middle-distances.
