Essell was second to My Guardian Angel over track and trip last week so that one's run earlier on the card should be a good guide to the chances of Mick Channon's filly in this. Vastly and Cheers Big Ears also only found one too good last time but recent course third Jamaica Grande tries a longer trip for the first time while Muzhil finished tailed off when dropped into this grade at Southwell for the first time. BIT WINDY will need a strong gallop as she's been racing over much further but Chris Dwyer's filly has only had four runs and may have a bit more scope than this modest bunch.
