Whispering Star attempts a longer trip after a frustrating run of seconds. She should figure but Lochalsh is harder to predict. He was tailed off on Polytrack last time having gone close on the Turf course here before that when just ahead of Sound Of Life. Flying Author's placed efforts are misleading as he's never finished anywhere near the winner so LEADERENE gets the nod. She was beaten only a length over 1m2f here last week and can go one better racing off the same mark in this.
