Outside Inside missed the break at Chester but has something to find with Richard Fahey’s grey Queen Penn on that run. Ladies First was easy to back at York but wasn’t disgraced and looks to be coming to hand. Lucky Violet needs forgiving a poor run at Ayr last week and hasn’t had much luck here in the past. NEVER BE ENOUGH returns to the scene of her sole victory to date. She’s finished second in two of her three starts since and a drop back in distance should aid her cause.
