Amba couldn't cope with the step up into this grade at Wolverhampton last time but Lean On Pete is not easily dismissed having landing a double at the same track recently. Diplomatic had the well handicapped George Baker back in fourth when scoring over C&D last time and neither will be far away in this but the vote in an open race goes to RUSSIAN ICE. She resented the soft ground at Newmarket on her latest start but had gone close over 7f here to Whimsical before that and the latter has since gone in again.
