Verdict
MYJESTIC MELODY has the best recent form and may be capable of finally losing her maiden tag. She finished second at Thirsk on Tuesday and this looks no tougher. Headstight was placed a couple of times at the end of last term without looking like winning but Ambitious Icarus went close over 6f at Ayr last month before a below-par effort at York. Kara's Vision makes her seasonal and handicap debut and may do better this year while Baltic Bomber's fourth at Catterick in October also gives him a chance.
