Last Surprise comes out best at the weights though has recorded both wins so far on the all-weather and the winners have dried up for her yard. Insania won at Leicester in August and arrives in better form than Great Dame but a chance is taken on ALENEVA. The latter struggled in a Group 3 contest at Ayr last month but it was soft going when she made a winning start at Haydock before that and better is expected from the Fahey filly back on a similar surface.
