ASTON ALIGHT (7) was strongly fancied last time and hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but could manage only third (24.83) at Sale over 435m. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Makes plenty of appeal. BLISSFUL RAIN (1) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (23.26) last time in a Grade 5 at this track. Can measure up this time. RHOSWEN (3) has mixed form a little and missed the frame the last two but was a T3 Grade 6 winner three back (23.02) at this track over 400m. Rates a winning chance on best. GREYSYND MERLIN (8) has claims fresh from a recent placing.
