A few of these are looking to make the most of a tumble down the weights. They include BERWIN, who was beaten less than a length in this lowly grade here last time and can gain her first victory. Warbond, Stun Gun and Princess Rose are others to consider and the latter finished ahead of Quantum Dot over 6f at the track a fortnight ago. Island Express and Lewamy finished thereabouts off similar marks last time and may get involved.
