A modest seller can go to Piddies Pride, who gets a confident vote over Keresforth and Cubic Confessions in a very ordinary seller. The Phil McEntee-trained selection came good in a similar race at Brighton nine days ago - where, even though the headgear was dispensed with, she hardly had to come out of first gear to oblige. The booking of Frankie Dettori suggests that they mean business with the daughter of Indian Lodge and it will be no surprise to see her justify why her trainer claimed her for 9,200gns after her Brighton win. Ian Woods will obviously know plenty about the selection - having trained her for her first five starts. However, Keresforth has a bit to prove on the terms of the race and the 5lb he picks up for winning over course and distance may be enough to stop him today. Cubic Confessions also needs to find improvement from somewhere and is also opposed with Piddies Pride now that she has got her act together.
