Verdict

None of these have looked like winning recently with only a token vote going to SHADOW’S GIRL, fourth over track and trip last time. Shanandoa was still nine lengths behind the winner when second at Chepstow last month while Just No Risk never threatened when placed at Ludlow. Getaman was the subject of a gamble at Kelso but finished tailed off. Numero Uno is one of several that have tumbled down the weights.
