Alpha Tauri could carry his rider around here blindfolded as he'll be having his 85th start on the track having won 13 times including when beating two rivals last time. Serena Brotherton usually gets on a fancied runner in these events and Red Touch is 5lb lower than when scoring over the course and distance a year ago. BOND ANGEL has won three times around here since November and though steadily climbing the weights his rider's 7lb claim can see him land victory number four. Simon Walker is always to be feared on whatever her rides in these races and recent course winner Baron Run is likely to give another good account while Caribbean Spring, an easy winner under Rose Margarson here in November, wasn't beaten far after three months off at Chelmsford.
