LACEWING and GLAMOROUS LADY have filled the runners-up berth in too many consecutive recent outings, so neither would be winning out of turn. ANCIENT WISDOM, AMBITIOUS LADY and EMPRESS WU, who was backed last time, are likely to pose the biggest challenge. PLUM BLOSSOM appeals most of the remainder.
