EMBRACE THE MOMENT is more exposed than stablemate Big Baby Bull but she’s been showing ability over this trip in better races than this and gets 8lb from the Doncaster fifth taking into account Rossa Ryan’s claim. Elusive Brand should improve past Headland as she was very green at Wolverhampton and it would be no surprise if she made a race of it with the Hannon pair.
