Song Of Parkes ended last season with a victory over 6f here but was well beaten in this race last year on her return to action. Mecca's Team is a C&D winner but may also need the outing given she hasn't raced since July and Kempton scorer Bailadeira has been off the track since November. Da' Quonde has the most recent form with a win at Wolverhampton to her credit before going close again at the same track last time, but SHES ROSIE is just preferred. She's only 2lb higher than when third in better company at Bath last July and a recent spin at Kempton will have blown any cobwebs away.
