Alban's Dream has been thereabouts over 6f here recently while Pink Flamingo was placed over the minimum trip at Newcastle last time without threatening the winner. But Mark Johnston’s charge had earlier finished behind HANAKOTOBA at the same track when the latter found only one too good and it’s Stuart Williams’ filly that gets the nod racing off the same mark today. Thegreyvtrain posted a better effort at Lingfield recently still looking for her first success while North Korea returns to action back on a winning mark having scored on the Turf track at Lingfield last summer.
