All of these are making their handicap debuts. Vanessa won her maiden over C&D but has been in woeful form since while Princess In Exile has been placed on more than one occasion but well beaten each time. Perfect Words finished runner-up in a seller back in April and would figure with a similar effort in this company but the token vote goes to THERAPEUTIC. She's got to improve on her recent attempts but her earlier second at Beverley could be the best piece of form on offer. The remainder have yet to show any worthwhile form as Charlemagne Diva was still beaten seven lengths when runner-up at Catterick.
