ARION SKY has been rested since disappointing at Limerick in November but Gordon Elliott’s mare had placed over track and trip before that and gets the vote on that form. The remainder have yet to threaten though Animore was expected to do better at Kelso last time and Lilly's Arc will know more today after a modest debut at Southwell. The newcomers would not need to be anything out of the ordinary to figure though both Mandy's Quine and Onecallaway are first foals of unraced dams and the betting may offer the best clue to their chances.
