None of these inspire confidence but INVESTED finished just in front of Copper Bay over track and trip on her debut with Take My Breath further behind and she gets a token vote. Pink Stripes is the most exposed having raced mostly in handicaps last year and Empire Of The Sun also returns to action having shown little in either start last autumn.
