L'Etacq has already won here and at Lingfield and wasn't beaten far over this trip at Newbury last time. Beach Samba has been edging closer to a first success and the likes of Shipwright, Bobbie's Girl and Haarib could all do better now tackling a nursery. BLING RING can be forgiven her latest run at Chester as she lost all chance at the start. She was still noted staying on nicely in the closing stages and, having also travelled strongly for a long way at Newmarket previously, can take advantage of this slightly easier task with headgear applied to help her concentrate.
