SEXY LOT went up 15lb for scoring at Chepstow but has continued in excellent form and would have found 2m too short at Ffos Las when narrowly beaten. She's still at the right end of the handicap and can see off the challenge of Fontaine Collonges. Venetia Williams' mare, a dual bumper winner, battled on strongly to get the better of No Risk Des Flos at Leicester, though was receiving 13lb from the winner. Baby Ticker got up close home to land a handicap over slightly shorter at Ayr and has won over this trip while none of the remaining quartet can be dismissed in a tight handicap.
