BLACK AGNES was returning from a three-month break when staying on strongly behind the in-form Try Again over the track and trip a fortnight ago. She hasn't had much racing and, with Dylan Hogan again able to utilise his claim, Lee Smyth's filly can go one better. Third-placed World's Greatest had every chance and looks held as do Annagassan, who was just behind in fourth, and sixth-placed Roter Baron. Tennessee Waltz found 6f too short last time after a narrow defeat over this trip and Pat Smullen's presence suggests his mount can get involved while Gordon Elliott has sent Captain K to England for his last few starts and he hasn't performed badly, though is still to lose his maiden tag.
