A competitive finale can go the way of LOOSE CABOOSE who is preferred to the likes of Twosheetstothewind and Ask Jenny. The selection has a penalty for her win last time out but she won with plenty in hand and although the draw could have been kinder she still looks to have a great chance of following-up. Twosheetstothewind hails from a yard who are starting to fire and she ran well when chasing home Revue Princess at Newcastle last time. She has a good draw and she should run a big race. Ask Jenny has ability but her strike-rate on the turf is not good and the percentage call would be to take her on; she has managed only one win from 25 starts on the turf. There are plenty in with chances here and Darcy's Pride, First Swallow and Brother Barry are also worth consideration. But Loose Caboose has plenty to recommend her and she get the nomination.
