A number of these have had their chances and we'll go with the unexposed Driven Snow versus Juzilla and Poulaine Bleue. Ed Vaughan's team haven't exactly fired of late but Driven Snow has demonstrated a degree of ability in much better conditions than this and with Seb Sanders booked, it looks as if today could be the day. Juzilla has to be respected from an in-form yard. She switches to Southwell having failed to get her head infront at Wolverhampton. Poulain Bleue is a fascinating handicap debutante from the Michael Bell yard. Unfancied in three starts, she is off a handy mark if good enough. Palais Polaire has ran well at this track previously and is one to watch in the market. Aquarian Dancer would have a chance on a fourth to Buddy Holly at Nottingham. She probably stays this far. Towy Girl looks a tricky ride and that goes some way to explaining her winless record so far. Piverina has already looked in need of today's step up in trip. Not a race that will live too long in the memory and we are with Driven Snow.
