This won't take much winning but PRICKLES is no more than a token selection as she was tailed off at Ascot after finishing second at Uttoxeter, though that was in a much stronger contest. Exeter fourth Queens Bay isn't really improving while it's a worry that Orange Gizmo is making her racecourse debut at the age of seven, though she is bred for the job. Karacas looks the pick of Oliver Sherwood's pair but only beat one home in an Aintree bumper in June while the three-year-old Frosty Reception has done little to suggest she'll be winning any time soon.
