It was a particularly weak maiden which TALENT TO AMUSE won at Stratford but she can only improve on that and should be good enough to defy a penalty against older rivals. Canoodle has been well backed since finishing runner-up behind Theatre Territory at Uttoxeter in December but she was beaten when falling last time at Ludlow and doesn’t look straightforward. Kohuma is slowly improving but probably not quickly enough to get her head in front here.
