The majority of clues come from the action at Thirsk last week when three of those in today's line up finished second, third and fourth respectively to the shock 33/1 winner Joie De Vivre.
GOLD FLEECE (second) finished 1L and 2L in front of
Lincoln Tale and
Fayetta, and should comfortably confirm those placings with stronger handling from the saddle tonight. Hugo Palmer's progressive 3yo filly also has the assistance of newly-applied cheekpieces in order to help sharpen her focus just that fraction more, so makes a good deal of appeal in this race. Of the remainder, the Camelot filly
Arctic Ocean should prove strongest for forecast purposes.
