Only a half-dozen line-up for this following the defection of Emma Lamb and Posh Spice. Little Actress has not really progressed as hoped but Brian Hughes prefers her to stablemate Largy Princess and she is unlikely to be far away again. BLUE SANS has course experience and has won a point and a bumper. She should make a hurdler and her yard has already been among the winners again this season. Tigerpomp has most scope of the others.
