Verdict

Fifth In Line has been placed in all five starts in maiden company. However, she's becoming frustrating and SLATEY HEN looks a safer option. Patrick Butler's filly won at Lingfield last month and stood little chance at the weights when runner-up to the higher rated Insolenceofoffice in a claimer at Kempton recently. She can go one better in this grade. Misty Morn can be given a chance on her form at this track back in November and she is preferred to the long-standing maiden Just For Leo.
