Blyton Lass won over course and distance last month before following up at Southwell. She is on a roll but back on a career-high mark today. MAMDOOD (NAP) has found some form since stepping up in distance. He was always travelling best in an apprentice handicap at Newcastle eight days ago and escapes a penalty so should be another winner for Meg Nicholls. Ramatuelle was bought out of the Prescott yard after landing a Brighton seller but her all-weather record is atrocious. About Glory was second over track and trip off this mark last time so looks the danger as Raven's Raft looks to have lost her way.
