BINKY BLUE shrugged off a 7lb rise to land a double with victory at Wolverhampton last week. Ryan Holmes' allowance reduces most of a 6lb penalty today and the hat-trick beckons for Daniel Loughnane's filly. Tasaaboq faced a tougher task last time and can figure but Blistering Dancer was still beaten six lengths when second at Kempton recently. Beggers Luck disappointed on her latest start but had finished ahead of Clement when runner-up here before that.
