It could pay to stick with ARCTIC MAIDEN as she bids for her hat-trick. She scored at Yarmouth last time with more in hand than the narrow winning margin would suggest and Willie Musson's filly gets the nod. Appyjack has also been in fine form on the all-weather and he can figure along with recent Kempton winner Librettela, while the three-year-olds Avon Supreme and Beggers Belief both posted better efforts on their latest starts and we may not have seen the best of them yet.
