Teddy Monty stages a quick return to the racecourse and he should see off Silver Nun and Yassooma. The trio return after a seven day absence and while in the formbook, it shows that Mick Quinn's charge won by three lengths - he was far more value than that margin might suggest. Silver Nun has the first time blinkers up in order to try and bring about further improvement. Yassoma is in receipt of allowances and while Tim Pitt's horse are running creditably - his backers are falling potential rather than actual formbook advise. Alarm Call was unsighted in three starts and has Fergal Lynch aboard. Midge's Girl was backed last time out and appears to need further than this trip. Tequila Rose failed to build upon a promising fifth in a handicap at Dunstall Park and is accordingly opposed. Lasting Love has an interesting jockey booking and is watched in the market. Winning form is invariably in short supply in these races and it is hoped that Teddy Monty can maintain his recent run of form.
