BINKY BLUE completed a double in minor handicaps here and at Lingfield before beaten on the latter track earlier this month. She should be capable of getting back to winning ways in this seller. Hercullian Prince has won just once in 15 starts and that was over a mile here last summer. He's inconsistent but must have a chance in this grade while Ubla, who has only had four runs in his career, takes a drop in class and should be respected. Lady Mcguffy won a claimer on soft ground at Redcar in October but has shown no improvement and was beaten in a seller in December. The veteran Ocean Legend has won 15 races on the all-weather including a claimer at Chelmsford last month and he's by no means out of this.
