STYLISH DANCER (NAP) came up short dropped back in trip at Wolverhampton last time but just failed to catch the winner over 2m at Kempton before that and Luca Cumani’s filly can open her account in this. Fitzwilly won off a similar mark at Ripon in August and can figure but Angel In The Snow has something to prove over today’s trip judged on an earlier effort at Catterick. Caged Lightning could go well off his current mark while Bracken Brae narrowly beat Ruler Of The Nile over 2m at Wolverhampton early this year.
