Absent Amy doesn't know how to run a bad race and, off the same mark as when a close second over a mile here last month, should be thereabouts again. Sixties Queen continues to frustrate, however, and has gone up in the weights again since her latest second at Chepstow. Fraserburgh can be a weak finisher though is a course and distance winner, as is Tectonic. But Keith Dalglish's runner only held on by a short-head here last time and is 8lb worse off than when beaten by JUDICIOUS here last month. The latter has to be the selection today.
