Formscan - Last year's winner Mermaids Cave is back for more and is 6lb lower this time. By and large, her recent form warrants that and although she is partnered by a non-claiming rider for the first time in a long time, it would take a leap of faith to back her for a repeat. Maybe it's worth chancing the fitness of HOPE RISING, who showed the darker side to her nature at Chepstow when last seen, but had been in fine form prior and clearly excels on spring/summer ground. So does Notnowlinda, who remains on a handy mark.
