Coronea Lilly has already run well twice over course and distance this month and should again beat Combustible Kate. But she may have to settle for a place again behind WINTER ALCHEMY. Nicky Richards' gelding doesn't stand much racing but will strip fitter for his comeback at Perth and is the pick of the weights on his old form. Minella For Steak fell over fences at Worcester in April when last seen and is best watched at present but Outback is fit from the Flat, though entering unknown territory over this much longer distance.
