Verdict
The unbeaten WITH CAUTION was penalised over track and trip last time but still landed the odds by a facile five lengths. This looks tougher under a double penalty but James Tate’s filly looks worth sticking with in this company. Plumette found one too good again here recently and drops back down in trip but Puzzle looks a likely improver on the back of a modest debut effort at Kempton. Pass The Vino went close at Dundalk in January and debuts for new connections while Sea Storm is a newcomer to watch as a sister to the useful all-weather winner Alfred Hutchinson.
