Taxmeifyoucan, a winner over hurdles last month, lacks a change of gear but is throw in on past form on the level. Bonne Vitesse was also a winner over hurdles recently while Yasmin From York was successful over 2m here 11 days ago and is still theoretically well treated, despite a penalty. HELLENISTA is having a first run over this trip but should be suited as she won over 1m4f at Ripon last year and didn’t quite last home over 2m at that track two weeks ago. Gift Of Raaj stays well but his yard is still struggling for winners.
