Verdict

SKELETON did not look an easy ride last time around Kempton but switching him this way around could make the difference and we take him to follow up. Labore was a relatively cheap purchase though on pedigree, it is worth a chance that he stays. Palm Pilot produced an improved effort for a switch to polytrack at Lingfield and should get the trip. Malice Or Mischief won twice for Ralph Beckett though has struggled to rediscover his form for Tony Carroll. Kaua'i Girl has to be respected if the market speaks in her favour as Ann Duffield's horses have run particularly well inside the last month.
