Lee Side Lady has been on a good run and Brodie Hampson will give her every assistance from the saddle. But quicker conditions are a concern whereas strong-travelling Plumpton second Taroum will enjoy the ground – he gets the nod. Four-year-olds Cocker and Social Climber should be monitored for any market support while Old Magic was just denied in this grade at Bangor last month and looks a better bet than the inconsistent Debt To Society.
