JUST SOPHIE won on good ground at Southwell in March and all of her later runs were on testing going. Providing the ground does not ease further she can get back on the winning trail. Gold Clermont completed a Plumpton double in March and is back in his correct grade. Kenny George is 1-29 and has never been as far as this nor has Robinsville, runner-up over 2m2f at Newton Abbot when last seen in May. Shewearsthewellies went up 5lb for her Fontwell victory and could not peg back the winner at Plumpton though she did not quite get the run of the race. Ernie Bilko was last seen winning at Stratford in March last year but would be a threat if ready.
