Mark Johnston looks to have found a good opportunity for SUTTER COUNTY. The latter just missed out by a neck in a conditions race at Newcastle last month and is clear of the rest off a mark of 103, including stablemate Poet's Society. Dubai One won a handicap at Newcastle during the week but Gheedaa came up short at Doncaster on her handicap debut. Visionary and Monte Cinq are maiden winners with plenty to find but last week’s course and distance winner Rozy Boys is less exposed.
