Verdict
Petite Ganache made a satisfactory reappearance over course and distance last month in a race that’s worked out well but the ground is possibly still a bit lively for Nicky Richards’ gelding. Chanceanotherfive is a versatile sort who wins his fair share and The Distant Lady has had wind surgery since showing decent form at Southwell in July. HEAVEY (NAP) was desperately unlucky at Fontwell 10 days ago as he was travelling best and challenging when falling two out. He races off the same mark here and compensation awaits with a clear round. Rivabodiva and Always Tipsy may need this but Ratfacemcdougall should find a race over this sort of trip this season.
