SAIGON KITTY'S best run came over this course and distance and she gets the vote today to break her maiden tag. John Best's charge was well-held on soft ground at Leicester last time out but she should appreciate a return to this surface and Ian Burns looks a good jockey booking. Pipers Piping is the most consistent in the line-up but his mark may be a tad high, and so a bigger threat might be Posy Fossil if she takes to the change of headgear. A visor is tried on the fairly-handicapped Gra Ashmhar, whilst Lady Of Gamoran was given a good ride by Duilio last time but will find dominating a field on this track tougher. Phluke, a course winner, is well-handicapped returned to an artificial surface and remains another to be interested in.
