Just Sam takes the eye in this company and is selected in preference to Lizzy Wiggins and Carry On Cleo. The last named is a versatile type that has paid her way in modest races like this. Her stable has numerous options for her this week and it would come as no surprise to see her make a quick reappearance if she posts and encouraging effort tonight. Lizzy Wiggins was lucky not to escape injury when she fell after clipping heels with a rival last time out. But, assuming that incident has not affected her confidence, this is not a strong contest and she has to merit serious consideration at this level. However, preference goes to Just Sam, whose consistency deserves reward at this level and, with conditions likely to suit, Declan Carroll's filly looks the best betting proposition at the likely odds.
