Eeyore, placed over hurdles and fences in France, made her debut for new connections in a Listed hurdle at Haydock but was always struggling. MAID IN MANHATTAN fell when on the retreat at the second last in the same race but her previous narrow defeat behind Young Bull at Wetherby suggests she can take this, especially as she won four of her previous five starts on the Flat. Sirwilliamwallace was well supported when stepped up to this trip at Ayr and found just one too good so he looks a big threat. Atlantic Dancer was a 66/1 chance at Newcastle earlier this month but ran better than expected and can improve.
