Tequila Sheila gets a sporting vote in a difficult race to assess, Cut Ridge and Linden's Lady look to be the main dangers. Karl Burke's filly hasn't won since here two-year-old days, when earning a top rating of 84. She has obviously regressed but did put in a decent effort in a class five handicap at Carlisle last time and should be capable of winning in this grade. Cut Ridge was three places ahead of the selection in that contest but is three pounds worse off today. He should still be on the premises but this mile trip is a slight concern. Linden's Lady is another one dropping down the weights and has strong claims on a recent effort behind Sawaah Musselburgh. Legal Dram is another to consider for each-way purposes, but Tequila Sheila is the the tentative choice in a wide open contest.
