In depth
Verdict
Rock On Candy ended last season with a three length victory at Catterick and she can figure if producing anything like that form on her reappearance though she's 8lb higher today. IMAGINARY DIVA makes more appeal as she has the more recent form with a close-up second at Yarmouth to her credit. An apprentice's allowance means she can effectively race off a lower mark today and George Margerson's filly gets the nod. Princess Cammie finally opened her account when landing a claimer at Salisbury last time but will find this tougher while Danziger has yet to win on Turf.
