Indian Valley has been running well enough at this track to be worthy of consideration and Ecossaise is another who could figure back over today's distance after fading badly over 1m4f at Ffos Las last time. Adorable Choice moves in the opposite direction having won twice over a mile recently and Convention has claims on her third here in August. However, the lightly-raced WOOD FAIRY ran out a five length winner on her latest start at Redcar and has enough scope to defy a 9lb rise in the weights. She gets the vote ahead of Bath winner History Repeating in a wide-open contest.
