Made a poor debut when well beaten in a bumper at Hexham on her only start to date. On what she has shown so far, it is hard to make a case for her.

Travelled well but looked green under pressure when beaten 9l in a mares' bumper at Plumpton on debut. Effective at 2m and should improve a little for that initial experience.

Verdict
Point-to-point winner I C U IN MY DREAMS displayed plenty of promise when filling second place on her Rules debut at Catterick in December. Donald McCain's mare is entitled to progress from that outing and could be hard to stop if doing so. Luna Grace has made the frame on both career starts and may improve for a recent wind op, while Pure Ocean and Aristelle are others to note.
Expert View Verdict
LUNA GRACE has placed on both of her starts so far and can take advantage of a light weight here. She is open to further improvement following a wind op so can defeat point winner I C U In My Dreams. That rival chased home a useful Irish rival on her sole start to date and she should be suited by this stiffer track. Aristelle benefitted from a stiff finish when showing improved form last time and a repeat would also see her on the premises.
