CHEEKY WEE RED has won three of her last four starts, two of them over this C&D. She's gone up a further 4lb but that's negated by Laura Barry's claim and Richard Fahey's filly could easily score again. Mr Chocolate Drop had Mark Anthony, Glenluji and Champagne Valley behind when successful over track and trip last month and is fancied to confirm the form, despite a 4lb higher mark, while Sabratha isn't without a chance and preferred to the enigmatic Georgebernardshaw of the others.
