Formscan  - A wind operation has revitalised VANILLA DANCER and a 2lb nudge for winning at Catterick looks highly workable in this company. Cutting back in trip was instrumental in that North Yorkshire success and Chris Grant's mare has a good chance of following up. Holly Bird travelled strongly when she won over an extended 2m4f at Newcastle and is another solid option, while Disco Annie and last year's winner Lady Babs tend to go well here and also command respect.
