Verdict
Few make any appeal but OH SO CHIC went close to losing her maiden tag when second over 2m at Musselburgh and is taken to go one better. Autonomy has looked high enough in the weights since landing a hat-trick over shorter trips on the Tapeta earlier in the year but Jack Yeats returned to the Flat with a third at Hamilton. Hackberry went close when last over track and trip while Lion Face won off a higher mark at Kempton last year.
