Petite Mac pops up every now and then but Mimi Mouse has a good course and distance record and gets the nomination ahead of Matterofact and Champagne Cracker. The selection acts well on fast ground and Tim Easterby's mare looks dangerously well-handicapped having won off a 10lb higher mark in the past. The stable like a punt so watch the market. Coconut Moon ran well in defeat last time out and warrants respect, along with course and distance winner Hello Roberto. She has talent but is out of form at present and needs a revival. Matterofact and Champagne Cracker will need to improve given that both have been raised three pounds for their recent wins. Muara is another who could go well at a decent price, however Mimi Mouse gets the nomination.
