Joanna Mason has struck up a good relationship with RATAFIA and that pair were landing a double when scoring with plenty in hand over track and trip last week. He looks worth sticking with in this. Daisy Roots was in good form on the Polytrack before well beaten at Chelmsford but Violeta wasn’t beaten far when only fifth here. Paco‘s Pride placed again last time and has switched yards since.
