Queen Of Skies may struggle but the remaining trio all have a shout. Eoin Walsh's 5lb allowance should see Lingfield winner Apache Glory back in contention while Atlantic Affair stayed today's trip well enough at Kempton last time, though could only manage fourth and steps up in class. SONNETATION has been thereabouts of late and was beaten only a length in this grade at Lingfield on her latest start. Jim Boyle's mare will find this much easier and gets the vote as Moulin Rouge is a pound out of the handicap.
