Little Palaver won over 6f here back in January with SOAR ABOVE beaten only a neck having landed a hat-trick at the course before that. The latter just missed out over track and trip last time and John Butler’s charge looks sure to figure. Chloellie is another at her best here and was beaten only a head off today’s mark on her last visit in February. She’s preferred to Coverham, who scored at the track back in September and has gone close at Chelmsford since. Angel Islington unseated leaving the stalls on her reappearance but was placed at Lingfield before that.
