Verdict
ICONIC FIGURE is clear of those with a handicap mark and finished third here in November. She should have the measure of James Bond Girl, placed on several occasions now and making her debut on this surface. Third at Lingfield last week, Rojina could also figure if taking to the Fibresand and David Barron's excellent strike rate at the track suggests the newcomer Graceful Favour, a half-sister to a couple of winners, is worth noting in the betting.
