Sunken Rags is the pick over Circle Of Truth, Put It On The Card and Pat Will. Another poor contest can go the way of Sunken Rags, successful in a maiden over the course-and-distance on just her second career outing in May. Tried too highly in Beverley's Hilary Needler Trophy next time, she has only had two further runs, and in truth has failed to progress, but hopefully will have strengthened up enough during a three month break to bounce back at this lowly level. Circle Of Truth has an even longer absence to overcome, but has shown a modicum of ability in the past. Put It On The Card has gone close at this level on a couple of occasions, and is preferred to stablemate Pat Will, but Sunken Rags has more scope and is the pick.
