MISS MACNAMARA surely deserves a change of fortune having only lost out by a neck at Wetherby last month. This is a stiff course so the drop min trip shouldn't be a problem. Catchthemoonlight was prominent for a long way in an amateurs' contest here last time but Dynamic Drive has questions to answer at present and Poppies Milan is likely to need this. Roll Of Thunder has bits of form which suggests he could figure if a recent outing has blown away a few cobwebs but Stand Clear only won a point-to-point last time.
