ATARED improved on her previous efforts when second to Samizdat at Huntingdon last time. The good ground contributed to that improvement and Pam Sly's mare can take advantage of today's conditions and go one better dropped in class. Guarino handled a faster surface on the Flat in France and encounters it for the first time over hurdles today, while Mid Wicket is another likely to appreciate the underfoot conditions. Both can figure here along with Mossman Gorge, who is not without claims judged on his latest improved run at Warwick.
