The outstanding initiative of the Carlisle executive in staging a ladies-only Pro-Am card has been richly rewarded with half a dozen competitive contests kicking-off with this 5f dash. AMENABLE has a 6lb penalty for his recent Pontefract success despite his young rider dropping his whip in the closing stages and Violet Jordan's gelding now has the assistance of Lucy Alexander, who will find this a very different exercise to a 3m handicap chase in the Hexham mud in the depths of winter. Having tumbled down the weights in 2013, the selection looks ready to cash in further on an attractive handicap mark. Foreign Rhythm has two successes this term to boast about and rates a very solid conveyance for amateur and conditional pilots. A good run is anticipated, whilst Busy Bimbo and Wicked Wilma give Alan Berry a competitive hand. Silly Billy is respected but may find the trip too sharp.
