Susie May is in good heart just now and can take this competitive affair at the main expense of Just Intersky and Bassinet. Bassinet is the epitome of consistency and does not seem to mind the ground, having finished placed on each of her last five starts. She just seems to lack a finishing kick and may have to settle for a place again. A winner at Kempton in January, Just Intersky was fancied at Leicester last time but had to settle for a place. He may find one or two too good despite racing off bottom weight. Susie May has won twice in successive races and seems to be at the top of her game. The trip and going look ideal and a five pound rise in the ratings looks unlikely to prevent her landing a hat-trick.
