GODDESS OF FIRE had subsequent winner Almaan well behind on the same terms at Yarmouth two runs ago. She didn’t run up to that form on a return visit to the Norfolk track but winning rider Darragh Keenan is back on board today. Dion Baker has changed stables since a third at Haydock while Chequer Square continues to frustrate. Hotspur Harry is preferred to Mc'ted of the others.
