SEA SISTER certainly wasn’t winning out of turn at Catterick. She is one of the few in this with scope for further improvement and should take all the beating, especially if there is any rain. Splash Of Verve has been gradually coming to hand and rates the danger, though Cuba Ruba is entitled to get a lot closer than he did at Catterick. Siyahamba won a similar contest over course and distance last summer and in only 2lb higher and Star Of Athena could also figure in another modest contest.
