Plenty of the usual suspects here but they're taken on with POET'S TIME. She showed little on three maiden starts but looked more like it on handicap bow at Haydock when asked to revert to the minimum trip. Hopefully, she will kick on now she's found her form and with just four starts to her name there should be plenty to come. She does receive a nice amount of weight from most of the older brigade too. The win of Camanche Grey here this month came rather out of the blue and his chances now are dependent upon repeating that improvement on very different ground conditions - good to firm is forecast compared to that latest win on soft. Kodimoor will prove suited by conditions and is respected but Picks Pinta rates the prime threat with Lewis Edmunds claiming a valuable 5lb off the gelding who has shaped well the last twice.
