COSETTE won over 2m at Chepstow before scoring over a shorter trip in soft going here last month. She’s upped 6lb but won by over three lengths last time and the hat-trick beckons for Bernard Llewellyn’s mare. Agreement has been threatening to score over similar distances and all-weather winner Comedy House can race off a much lower mark on this surface. Danglydontask is a course and distance winner on fast going and Snowy Dawn is another that would prefer a faster surface.
