A truly desperate affair in which FAIR COMMENT gets only a token vote on account of the fact that she's just a pound higher than when scoring at Ffos Las last summer, though she might have preferred an easier surface. Doctor Kehoe has yet to make the frame in any of his races but has hinted at ability on occasion and preferred to Cantankerous, who is making his debut on Turf. Repechage may do better in this grade but the others have little to recommend them.
