Blanchefleur went close at Windsor when last in action in October and drops back in trip for this while Dream Catching scored over 6f at Kempton in September and also won a maiden race race over track and trip earlier. Global Exceed was placed over 7f at Lingfield recently but is upped in class while Emily Goldfinch and MAMILLIUS scored over course and distance last season. Both were also placed over 6f on the all-weather recently but George Baker’s charge is now back on a winning mark and may just edge this.
