Any money for Faraday would of course be significant, but we will take a chance with My Monna, Noah Jameel is another worthy of respect. Sheena West's charge is steadily improving and wasn't beaten far in an apprentice handicap at Lingfield last time out by Picky. She is a very lightly raced filly and is open to plenty more improvement. Faraday was backed off the boards when winning at Wolverhampton in August and a repeat effort would see him go close today, although not many Curley horses win two in a row. Noah Jameel has been running well of late and has great claims if reproducing his recent running behind the progressive Boz. It is not the strongest of races and Astrolibra is another to consider, but on this occasion we will side with My Monna.
