Sheila won at Chelmsford before going close again at the same track with Always Fearless well behind. She’s not out of this while True Scarlet won a maiden race over track and trip before struggling in heavy going at Newbury and shouldn’t be written off yet. But MARION’S BOY improved for the longer trip when second over course and distance with both The Jean Genie and Secret Art behind and Roger Teal’s charge may prove the one to side with in this.
