Irish Import Soroka may be good enough to get the better of Don't Sioux Me and Lucky Judge, with Red Nose Lady having place claims. Formerly trained on the Flat by David Wachman, Soroka looks to have found his niche judged on a very good second to the useful Kickham at Killarney that was followed by a well earned win at Wexford last summer. Jenny Candish may have found herself a money-spinner in the son of Sadler's Wells who will go well on rain-softened ground. The slight doubt is his fitness, but he will surely pay to follow this winter and should be noted. Don't Sioux Me is on a decent mark at present but this dual-purpose performer has not set the world alight of late. Mind you he might not need to to take hand here. Lucky Judge has had limited outings over timber but managed to open his account at Musselburgh three years ago. Since then he has been mainly kept to the level, and was successful at Redcar in July. A stayer on the Flat, he will have no problems with today's trip, while Red Nose Lady hails from a yard in good form at present, and although fully exposed, is another that should stay every yard. She is barely better than plating class though and does not nearly as much appeal as Soroka who has more scope than most of these.
