Lisa Jones gets on well with Paddywack and the partnership can be profitable to follow here, while it will also be noteworthy to post a look out for how the market rates Johnston's Diamond and Blythe Spirit in this tight handicap. There is very little to split the last two on their current form and, as they meet on the same terms as their encounter here earlier in the month, race-tactics will play a strong part today. Kostar, who won that aformentioned mentioned contest, had previously been hard to win with and appears to need everything to drop right for him. He benefited from the way things panned out last time and took advantage late in the day to score. However, this is also way Paddywack likes to be played in his races and this much traveled individual is fancied to be strong enough to sweep past them all if Jones can find the gaps near the finish.
