Bright Lily shaped nicely on her debut at Carlisle last month when a running-on third to Kiss Me My Love.
Granted normal improvement, the Richard Fahey-trained filly should prove hard to beat from a draw against the stands’ rail in leg one (6.20) of the Ripon Placepot.
Punters chasing the £50,000 guaranteed pool are advised to select Path To Glory, an interesting newcomer from the James Tate stable, and the more experienced Rogue State in leg two (6.50).
Course-and-distance winner Makalu emerged with huge credit when landing a Class 6 Beverley handicap last month by a length from Star Of St James.
By far the last off the bridle that night, Makalu has been raised only 4lb and can follow up in leg three (7.25).
Eight-time scorer Soul Seeker usually comes to hand at this time of year and might be able to take advantage of a tumbling mark in leg four (8.00). Leodis Dream, who is also well drawn, rates solid back-up.
Sea La Venus is bred to be much better than a mark of 62 and looks the answer to leg five (8.30), while Wichahpi and Jesmond Dawn are the picks in leg six (9.00).
