A large fie;d goes to post for this seller but on closer inspection not many can be given a serious chance of winning and the principals look to be Fair Along, Piddie¿s Pride and Yeldham Lady and the vote is given to Fair Along. The selection has been in fair form of late and was a fair fourth last time out behind Detroit City in a better race. This looks easier and she need only run up to that mark to score. Piddie¿s Pride rates the main danger on her latest fourth behind Rassem but he best form is over a shorter trip and for that reason he is opposed. Yeldham Lady is game and consistent and is sure to run her race she will appreciate the return to this grade and has definite place claims. White Star Magic has the ability to win a race of this nature but he does not always ordain to use it and in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Fair Along
