Prettilini, Madam Cantyre and Spitzensparkes are the three to concentrate on here and the vote is given to Prettilini. The selection hails from a shrewd yard and she has shown enough on her last two starts to set the benchmark for the rest here. She is proven on this surface and with the drop back to the minimum trip also in her favour we rate her as the one to beat. Madam Cantyre rates the main danger as this lightly-raced filly has shown plenty of promise on each of her last three starts. She finished fourth behind Pauvic at Lingfield last time and if she improves again then she will not be far away at the finish. Spitzensparkes has had plenty of chances and although the drop in trip should suit, she is not progressing as expected and for that reason we will oppose her. Lucky April is at least fairly consistent and may do best of the rest, but for the winner we are happy to return to Prettilini.
