MISS CHAMPAGNE scored over course and distance last month under this pilot who has made a good impression in recent months. That success came in a conditional jockeys handicap for which she escapes a penalty and she can follow-up here in receipt of weight from nearly all bar one her rivals. Osmosia is arguably the potential improver in the field although she does have her fair share of weight for this handicap bow, but Paul Webber has his string in good shape at present and she rates the danger. Only Hope looks the obvious each-way play, although it wouldn't be the biggest surprise were she to notch a deserved first success over timber. Monkhair also merits respect.
