Babylone Des Motte beat Briery Queen and Lifeboat Mona in this grade at Sandown last month but Willie Mullins' filly is no certainty to confirm that running with the placed horses on worse terms. Chocca Wocca won easily at Ludlow on her debut and the runner-up has franked the form since while the progressive Hollies Pearl is respected as her form ties in closely with that of Lifeboat Mona. Whistle Dixie started favourite for Babylone Des Motte's race at Sandown but stumbled and unseated Bryan Cooper before halfway. She'd won her first two starts in bumpers and shouldn't be ignored. Alan King sets a poser in this by saddling three. All won on debut but Wayne Hutchinson has decided to stick with the Midnight Legend filly MISS CRICK. She only had to be pushed out to score at Newbury and is Flat-bred so should have too much pace for the majority of these. Stable companion Katie Too beat subsequent winner Sea Pride on her introduction and can also get involved. Legend Lady may be the pick of the remainder.
