KNOCKABOUT QUEEN is penalised for winning a selling contest at Windsor four days ago but Mick Channon’s filly dotted up by over three lengths and is taken to confirm running with fourth-placed Red Handed, despite worse terms. The latter had earlier gone close in a claimer at Beverley when finishing well ahead of both Go Annie Go and Lady Lavinia with Lexikon even further behind but Lady Lavinia re-opposes on better terms so may come out best on this occasion.
