Mickleberry is a consistent performer and should be thereabouts again but James Bethell's filly may be a shade high in the weights at present and preference is for Wibbadune, with Triskaidekaphobia rated the pick of the remainder. The selection was good value for her win at Kempton earlier this month when making all the running and Peter Grayson's filly is taken to follow up today. Fern House could probably do with some help from the handicapper, while Elvina has chances on form but has a difficult looking draw to overcome. Fish Called Johnny is worse drawn than anything else and of more interest may be Triskaidekaphobia, who bounced back to winning ways here last time and he has to be respected. Wibbadune looks to be better treated at the weights though and she is preferred.
