P Charalambous
Placed once in seven starts. Finished 11l behind Bilidn when sixth of 11 at 25-1 on her latest outing at Wolverhampton over 1m 6f in March. Runs from 1lb out of handicap.
A few of these come into this with a bit to prove, not least SO IS SHE, who has been in cracking form on the all-weather this spring and ran out a comfortable winner at Wolverhampton last time. Returning to turf off only a 2lb higher mark, she looks one to keep onside and is preferred to another recent all-weather victor, Dunaskin. Of the others, Ivan The Terrible might just prove the pick.
