Almodovar bids for a hat-trick off a 6lb higher mark while More Mischief has been upped 4lb as she also goes in search of a treble. Keep In Line returned to winning ways at Windsor last month but Cloud Monkey's winning run came to an end when stepped up to 1m6f at Doncaster. Sherry has been thereabouts of late and Moonrise Landing went close at Newmarket only to disappoint at Newbury last time. But HEADLINE NEWS was having only her second start of the campaign when third in this grade at Newmarket last month and racing off the same mark today, she gets the vote.
