Onatopp came good last time out when finally getting off the mark in facile fashion and is taken to win again at the main expense of Rothesay Dancer and Riverside Dancer. The selection has shown an aptitude for slower ground so any further rain would not pose any problems and having landed a confidence boosting win at Catterick, she can build on that and looks a player off this mark of 69. Rothesay Dancer is a model of consistency and she goes especially well for today's jockey Kelly Harrison. Riverside Dancer won with plenty in hand last time out at Hamilton but encounters different conditions here and wouldn't want any further rain. Petite Mac and Gap Princess are two at bigger prices who could run into places, and Diksie Dancer is still unexposed but will need to improve to win off this mark of 68. A competitive affair, however we will return to Onatopp to come out on top.
