Formscan  - Lillistar has to be respected on her return to the Flat having won at Wolverhampton in October. That said, marginal preference is for FREE PIC, who is a previous course winner and her most recent efforts in defeat over 1m4f have been encouraging. The step up in trip may help the five-year-old to score for the second time. Colinski and Angelardo are others to consider.
