Verdict
WINDTOTHELIGHTNING kept on encouragingly at Doncaster and this afternoon’s step up in trip should suit. Nell's Bells has ran in some decent bumpers and the mare attempts to give away a penalty accrued for a fine effort at Wetherby. Brian Hughes should know all about Aubis Walk as the rider has been aboard her on all three starts under Rules with the latter a fall at Ayr. Jims Apple was supported on debut for James Ewart so she shouldn’t be totally dismissed from the reckoning.
