Three-times track winner Sister Lola was expected to land a claimer here last week but was beaten at odds-on. Her earlier form puts her in the frame though Laugh A Minute and BIG GOSSEY have been in excellent form on Turf. The former was beaten a neck in a heritage handicap at York earlier this month though had finished just over three lengths behind the latter in a premier handicap at the Curragh earlier and there doesn't appear any reason for a form reversal. Big Baby Bull has been going well on Turf and his yard does brilliantly on this track while Ramon Di Loria is a progressive type though may find this a bit on the short side.
