The champ's presence on board Isthereadifference will probably ensure that the Worcester second goes off favourite but blinkers will need to bring about some improvement. We prefer to take a chance on the potential of ROYALRACKET, who should do much better now tackling the larger obstacles. Leeroar still has a bit of scope but may find conditions too fast and Tinelyra would have preferred a stiffer test as his best form so far has come at Towcester. Winning pointer Milly Malone has hinted at ability under Rules and can't be ignored.
