Verdict

AGENT LOUISE has thrived since being stepped up to this marathon trip and completed a course and distance double with a comfortable victory over today's rival Moscow Presents earlier this month. She loves the ground and, though 3lb out of the handicap, can complete a hat-trick. Shantou Tiger has been beaten twice off this mark in recent weeks though in slightly better grade so he's on the short-list but Fresh By Nature may do better back over fences.
