The progressive NUBLE continues to defy the handicapper and completed a four-timer with a cosy victory over 1m2f here last week. Marco Botti’s charge hasn’t finished winning yet on that evidence and can defy a penalty in this modest company. How Hard Can It Be has improved for going handicapping and has more scope than the likes of Parikarma and Eltham Palace while Typewritten may also improve making her handicap debut on the back of placed efforts at Chelmsford.
