Verdict
Plumette only won a seller at Leicester and is having a first run for new connections. Knightshayes did well in her first season, winning on debut at Lingfield, and could have more to offer this year but Moneta needs to bounce back from a poor run at Wolverhampton. Saikung could be well treated on her handicap debut and Shellebeau placed twice at Kempton in October but LETHAL LOVER looks the pick of the weights if she handles the switch to Turf as she ran well from a poor draw at Kempton when last seen.
