Lady Lisa can make up for her latest mishap to score, with Sikasso, Azzemour and Cottam Grange just three more in with a shout. Lady Lisa was in with every chance when falling at the last at Bangor recently, and although she is nothing out of the ordinary, will be expected to play a major part in this company. That was only her second outing since coming over from Ireland, and although she would prefer the ground a bit softer, she is well weighted and gets the vote. Sikasso caused a shock when scoring at odds of 33-1 at Sedgefield last time, no doubt helped by the cheekpieces, and he should make his presence felt as well. Azzemour ran well at Fakenham the time before last, and this brother to the ill-fated Le Sauvignon will have more luck when sent over fences. Cottam Grange has been hard to place but showed signs of encouragement last time and any market moves would be interesting, but we return to Lady Lisa as the answer.
