My Sweet Lord has won on Polytrack and soft ground so today's ground may just prove too quick. Our Sweet Art is still a maiden but came close when runner-up to Idle Curiosity at Ffos Las and should be winning soon. Amadeus Denton is still looking a few pounds high but Clock Opera gained a surprise victory at Lingfield on Sunday and though racing here with a penalty Laura Pike's claim is a bonus and a quick follow-up is a distinct possibility. However, PILATES cost 170,000 euros and showed enough on her third start at Hamilton to suggest she can start repaying some of that outlay from what may turn out to be a very lenient mark. Game All showed plenty of promise last season and the market should tell us if she's fancied on her belated reappearance.
