SHENEEDEDTHERUN’s second at Worcester last month, her first run for Sam Allwood, looks better now than it did at the time and she is fancied to go one better here. Despite winning twice between the flags, Kitty Fisher has been found wanting over this trip under Rules but there should be more to come over fences from Royal Claret and Angels Antics placed at Uttoxeter and Bangor last season for previous connections. Talkofgold was pulled up on her chasing bow in July so has a bit to prove now.
