An interesting opener where preference is for SPENNYMOOR with Pigeon Hollow and Avid Kale also worthy of note. The Godolphin inmate takes something of a drop in class following two defeats but though she is related to a number of sprinters - there is enough evidence in her pedigree to suggest that she may stay this seven furlongs. Pigeon Hollow almost posted a 50/1 shock having thundered home at Epsom last week. It is certainly of interest that Mick Channon seeks a maiden rather than a run in a nursery. Avid Kale is respected from a yard that can have them primed for a gamble first time out. His half-brother stayed seven furlongs though was fairly modest. Cocohatchee let down the odds on backers at Epsom last month so it remains to be seen as to whether those punters will chase their losses. Soviet Spring was well backed on debut at Lingfield so that raceday performance must have been something of an unpleasant surprise. A Little Bit Dusty regressed after a fair run here previously. One Lucky Lady has a stout pedigree so it could be worth waiting until she is tried over further next term. Spennymoor should welcome the drop in sight tonight.
