None of these inspire confidence with a token vote going to RODDY RANSOM. The latter was no match for the winner when second over 1m2f at Beverley with Brasingamanbellamy just behind but this extra distance may bring further improvement now handicapping. Copperlight has won over a mile but hasn’t raced since January while Brodick disappointed at Leicester last time. Queen Of Camelot is a full-sister to a winner over today’s distance and may prove best of the rest.
