Verdict
Franki J faces no easy task off 55 here despite an all-the-way win at Yarmouth, especially from a wide draw, while Paphos was allowed to dictate here on Wednesday and may be sent off a very short price if asked to defy a penalty. Instead we'll side with ex-Mark Johnston horse AQUA VITAE, who showed last time that she can run well off this mark. Kieren Fallon's booking adds to the case and she'll be dropped in so a draw in 10 isn't too much of a worry and she remains one of very few here capable of better. A Pocketful Of Rye was behind our selection at Kempton and continues to look rather one-paced so more of a threat could well be Rigid, who was beaten less than a length here two starts back and is only a pound higher now. Orsett Lad has the assistance of Kieren Fox and his 5lb claim which eases the burden but he looks to need it while there are doubts about Cheshire Lady getting home.
