Verdict
LIL GUFF has improved for the return to the minimum trip and bids for a hat-trick after scoring at Sandown last week - she gets the vote raised only 3lb. Several won their penultimate starts including Angle Land, who scored at Goodwood, while Sera Dawn was beaten at the same track having earlier completed a double. Grace Angel failed to cope with a 6lb rise last time for winning at Redcar last month.
