Verdict
Born To Please has finished second twice at Leicester this season and should be thereabouts again but ATLANTIC DANCER is due a good run so gets the nod, even though she has saved her best for Ayr in the past. Esme Shelby is another who is hard to catch right but Asa still has a bit of scope. A visor would need to bring about improvement in Starvoski while Dime Store Cowgirl reverted to type at Warwick after justifying favouritism at Catterick.
