AT FISHERS CROSS won a Cork bumper for Charlie Swan in November and is now with Rebecca Curtis. The fact that McCoy takes the ride suggests he's fancied to extend his unbeaten record today. Mister Newby just scraped home at Plumpton and will find this tougher under a penalty but Eleven Fifty Nine's second to Colour Squadron at Chepstow in October has turned out to be a decent run and she should be thereabouts again if fully wound-up for her first start since. Little Chip was third at Huntingdon on his debut under Rules while the nicely-bred Seranwen is the most interesting of the newcomers.
