Joyful Star has been thereabouts over a mile recently but has just the one win on Turf and that was back in 2016 and the less exposed SUSIE JAVEA is preferred. The latter was beaten less than a length at Catterick when last racing over today’s trip and Ollie Pears’ filly gets the nod on that form. Eldelbar could be in the mix with a recent run under his belt and Be Bold was winning off a higher mark here last year.
