A typically bad seller and one that can go to Red Nose Lady, with Minstrel Hall and Millkom Elegance others to consider. The selection has gone up in the weights following success in a Uttoxeter seller last month and found it tougher back at the same track last time. A 1lb drop will help a little, and the mare, who jumps well enough and handles fast ground, looks just about capable of getting her nose back in front. Minstrel Hall has to give weight away all around and is not a mare you could describe as consistent. 10lb higher than when taking a similar race at Catterick in March, the five-year-old has at least started to drop in the weights following a few defeats and although he won't find it easy, in an awful race he can show up well. Course and distance winner Millkom Elegance is 9lb higher than that success here last October. She clearly enjoys this undulating track and also acts on fast ground, so she can start to show us some form again here, but for the winner we will take a chance on Red Nose Lady.
