Rated 69, Never In Red sets the standard having placed over 6f on a couple of occasions and can figure if lasting home. Simply Susan also steps up in trip after finding one too good at Bath on both starts to date though Annie Quickstep was placed over today’s distance at Chepstow on her latest start. But James Tate’s yard is in red-hot form at present and GREAT AIM is expected to improve for this extra furlong having still finished a close-up fourth at Lingfield on his recent debut despite being forced wide on the turn for home.
