Verdict

The lack of form available makes it practically impossible to make a selection without the vital actuality of the on-course market. The combination of Robert Sangster and Lynda Ramsden obviously raises eyebrows in such lowly fare. The two three-year-olds are both beautifully bred but the fact that they have already had the unkindest cut of all is scarcely to their recommendation. Bahita lost her way after a promising effort behind Golden Nun at Chester and is throughly exposed. Milk and Sultana has been at big odds on her two starts and looks hard to fancy. Prince Zar was well beaten on turf at Lingfield and the subsequent form has given little to write home about. The percentage call is for Notanother. She was an unfancied 20/1 shot when second to Takes Two to Tango on debut at Nottingham last summer. Seven furlongs is probably on the sharp side for her but connections must have seen something to make it worth their while.
