Certain Promise has been found the perfect opportunity to supplement his Leicester gains and can confine Loveinanelevator and to minor roles. The selection stepped up on the form that she had showed in maidens to run out a ready winner of her handicap bow at Leicester in the style of a progressive performer and is impossible to oppose despite a penalty. Loveinanelevator has been running well in the main and may make a little progress for being stepped back up to a mile but doesn't have the same scope as the selection. Nice Matin failed to build on her debut win whilst Suzi Spends may need a stiffer test than this mile will provide. Of more interest may be Sleeping who didn't show a great deal in qualifying for a mark but has been given plenty of time off and returns to action with her yard going well. She may prove capable of better in time but it's difficult to envisage her getting the better of Certain Promise.
