Ali The Hunter, too bad to be true the last day, is better than that and should not be discounted receiving weight all round. Champagne To Go is steadily dropping to a more workable mark but Big Penny needs to be forgiven a poor last run. Amberose is consistent and will appreciate the return to 2m4f after almost certainly failing to stay last time. Organdi is unexposed and interesting and therefore cannot be ruled out on her handicap bow and Slaine stayed on strongly to oblige last time and is going the right way. However, in an open race, TAKINGITALLIN has gone well the last twice against potentially useful types, is on a fair mark and appeals as a really genuine mare.
