Verdict
Bold Cross isn't getting any younger and was never in contention in better company at Chepstow last time. If I Were A Boy has been knocking on the door and Ali Rawlinson's claim will help her cause. But she struggles to get her head in front, as do Delightful Sleep and Petersboden. Cataria Girl is better on the all-weather and Banreenahreenkah is only a plater while Polydamos disappointed when favourite last time at Kempton last time. GREYEMKAY was also market leader last time, at Ffos Las, and only gave best close home. He can confirm that running with Delightful Sleep and go one better today.
