The lightly-raced AMBALA could prove the answer to this. A winner at Kempton last year, she wasn't beaten far on her return at Newbury last month and there should be more to come from Chris Wall's filly. Sangar would go close on one of her going days but is too inconsistent to have any confidence in although Mount Abora could figure dropping back in distance. Isdaal on the other hand would prefer a longer trip and Favorite Girl has shown her best form on the Fibresand at Southwell so far.
