Orliko faces a demanding task with his penalty conceding weight all round. SONNETINA produced a pretty telling turn of foot to score at Brighton last month and although the form of the race is far from strong, it was an improved performance from a filly who ought to progress further on the back of just a handful of starts. A rise of 6lb seems acceptable. So Claire is unexposed and interesting as she moves into handicap company for the first time off a fair mark and both Halle's Harbour and Glamorous Crescent have been performing with creditable consistency and it's the latter who rates the likeliest threat to the selection after a solid runner-up effort at Chepstow.
