Amicable Terms arrives here in sparkling form and he can win again at the main expense of Offshore Anna and China Pink. The selection has won her last two races in good style and although she has a 12lbs penalty to contend with here, that is partly offset by the claim of her young rider today who is good value for his 7lbs. She looks to be on an upward curve and she has solid claims. Offshore Anna remains unexposed and she ran well on her handicap debut when she chased home Sinbad the Sailor. There could be more to come and she is respected. China Pink was returning from a lengthy break when fourth behind Director's Chair at Yarmouth last time and she is certainly entitled to come on for that run. Henry Cecil's Kimbolton has been a bit disappointing so far and she is probably best watched until she starts to show a bit more. Amicable Terms is the form horse and she can win again.
