More the merrier seems to be the message in this desperate seller with 19 expected to post; the narrow vote goes to FOREVER'S GIRL ahead of Time Loup and Ishiquick. Geoff Oldroyd's filly has shown a semblance of ability on three starts to date and has hinted that these conditions may not be a problem. The drop to six furlongs looks a good move given the way she tired last time at Redcar and she looks the best of the trainer's pair. Glan Lady is quickly dropped in class after a debut at Warwick where she was only beaten three lengths. This longer straight may be more in her favour and sure to have learnt from that run; if she is backed then she may be worth siding with. Ishiquick needs to improve for the first-time blinkers, whilst Ann Duffield tries a visor for the first time on Smoke Me A Kipper. Time Loup has the highest rating in the line-up but may struggle to give weight away all round, whilst Alibar's Surprise showed nothing on debut but takes a big drop in class. Nchike is consistent at this level and should again run his race however for the winner we will return to Forever's Girl.
