Belle Of Annandale has a major form chance on the back of a recent length second at Musselburgh. But she remains 0-15 and will probably offer little in the way of value and COCONUT BAY rates a viable alternative. An all-weather winner for Hughie Morrison, she's taken time to find form for current connections but her latest third at Ayr, when beaten under a length, was a step forward and she can take advantage of the 15lb received from the top weight. Annandale has to be considered in light of this major drop in class and Graces Quest has not been beaten far in recent starts.
