FANCY STUFF landed a few tidy bets when bolting up at Stratford just under 3 weeks ago and an 8 lb rise may not be enough to prevent her from going in again. She gets the nod ahead of chasing-debutante Emily's Choice, who won her first couple of starts over hurdles and can have a line put through her handicap debut at Uttoxeter 9 weeks ago (lost a shoe). Admiral's Sunset can edge out Rory's Story for third place.
