Verdict

Miss Katmandu is recommended against the exposed pair of Rock Chick and Tamalain. Geoff Wragg has sent this half-sister to Asian Heights on the long journey to Newcastle so the hint is taken. Although he has a busy book of rides. it appears that Darryll Holland looks to have come here for this mount and we will chance that she might be useful. Rock Chick has had plenty of chances thus far. She should have few problems getting the trip but she does not tend to find a great deal in the finish. Tamalain was a very expensive purchase for the Amanda Perrett team. She appeared to resent the visor on her latest start and this is left off this afternoon. Caribbean Pearl was behind Rock Chick at Epsom and may be a different proposition on today's ground. Miss Katmandu is open to most improvement but the market is watched before lumping on.
