Present Trend won over 2m4f at Worcester in September and drops back in distance having been beaten subsequently. The others with a recent run are harder to fancy with both Bobble Boru and Alottarain below par last time. Kayf Charmer failed in her bid for a hat-trick off today’s mark at Warwick in May though wasn’t beaten far and can figure but TOP AND DROP is just preferred. Venetia Williams’ charge showed steady improvement last season and this doesn’t look a particularly tough race in which to make her handicap debut.
