Verdict
Newcastle scorer Lucematic should make a bold bid to defy her penalty but DOYLY CARTE was more impressive at Catterick last month. She's a half-sister to the same owner's smart Flat performer Dandino so should have more to offer and can follow up here. The Flaming Matron hinted at ability on her debut while newcomers Brijomi Queen and Seren Gris would be worth a second look if the market spoke in their favour.
