In depth
Verdict
Balm won a seller on the Polytrack recently, but was well behind third-placed Regal Lady at Wolverhampton last time and the latter could figure on her turf debut. Dolly Danca went close at Nottingham last time, but had earlier finished behind Catterick winner Uncle Timmy, who is 2lb higher today. Wake Up Sioux just held on for victory on her handicap debut at Musselburgh in September, but HOLY ANGEL has shown glimpses of promise in maiden company and gets the token vote here with first-time blinkers applied on his first start in a handicap. Wish Again makes most appeal of the remainder in a wide-open contest.
