Formscan - LIZZIE REY showed a big chunk of improvement in first-time cheekpieces when scoring by four lengths in this grade at Southwell last time. Richard Phillips' eight-year-old makes only her fourth start in a handicap and remains unexposed over this distance, so it would be no surprise to see her complete a double. Lyness Dancer was third over this trip at Fontwell on her latest outing and should remain competitive off a 1lb lower rating. Of the remainder, Honey Jack makes the most appeal.
