Zenovia has slipped down the weights before scoring over track and trip but is back up 5lb today. Toolatetodelegate won over the minimum trip here a fortnight ago to finally open her account and has an 11lb hike to contend with. SWANTON BLUE makes more appeal given he was beaten less than a length when placed in a higher grade at Lingfield recently and the top weight is also preferred to Meandmyshadow, who had gone close on the Turf before finishing fourth at Newcastle on her latest start.
